Three dimensional flow field at confluent fixed-bed open channels

Sebastián Guillén Ludeña, António Heleno Cardoso

River confluences are known for their marked 3D patterns and, due to the complexity of local flow features and bed morphology, they require particular consideration. Although there are studies on the flow structure in junctions of two streams, amore detail ...

Morphodynamic changes in a natural river confluence due to a hydropower modified flow regime

Anton Schleiss, Marcelo Leite Ribeiro, Simon Wampfler

River channel confluences form important morphological components of any river system. This article presents the results of an investigation on a natural river confluence in Switzerland. The aim of the field work performed at the confluence of the Sarine ( ...

Morphodynamic differences induced by different confluence angles in widen confluences

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sebastián Guillén Ludeña, António Heleno Cardoso

River widening is commonly used as a solution for the rehabilitation of rivers with the main purposes of allowing the river to adjust to its natural dynamics and to improve riparian and instream habitat for flora and fauna, by increasing the heterogeneity ...

Reservoir sedimentation management at Gebidem Dam (Switzerland)

Tobias Meile

The Gebidem Dam located on the Massa River intercepts annually around 400’000 m3 of solid material. These sediments must be evacuated by annual flushing of the reservoir over 4 to 7 days. A trend for silting in the flushing channel was observed during the ...

Hydrological modelling of the Zambezi River Basin taking into account floodplain behaviour by a modified reservoir approach

Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Théodora Cohen Liechti, David Ferràs Segura

Floodplains are regions of great interest for environmental assessment as they constitute important ecological reserves and contribute efficiently to natural flood attenuation. However, the implementation of a model describing the basic hydrological behavi ...

Above and below-ground Salix dynamics in response to river processes

Paolo Perona

Riparian vegetation influences hydraulic and morphodynamic river processes and may contribute to sediment stabilization. In turn, vegetation recruitment and growth on non-cohesive fluvial deposits strongly depends on river hydrology and the ability of root ...

A method for assessing the feasibility of air-bubble screens to reduce morphological gradients in open-channel bends

Anton Schleiss, Koen Blanckaert, Violaine Dugué

Within the fluvial network, confluences are particular areas characterized by great ecological value where flow dynamics and bed morphology are much influenced by local patterns. The aim of this article is to describe the influence of the convergence angle ...

Influence of the convergence angle on the morphodynamics of discordant bed confluences

Active flood management in Alpine catchment areas equipped with storage hydropower schemes

Anton Schleiss, Martin Peter Bieri, Frédéric Jordan

The simulation of runoff in Alpine catchment areas is essential for the optimal operation of high-head storage hydropower plants (HPP) under normal flow conditions, but also in case of flood events. A semi-distributed conceptual numerical approach has been ...
