Local tributary widening for river rehabilitation

Anton Schleiss, Koen Blanckaert, Marcelo Leite Ribeiro

The hydro-morpho-sedimentary processes in confluence hydrodynamic zones (CHZ) subject to a local widening of the tributary were investigated in a series of laboratory experiments that were representative of the 20 major confluences of the Upper Rhone River ...

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

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

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 Tributary Widening on Confluence Morphodynamics

Marcelo Leite Ribeiro

In alpine regions of Europe, river training works were typically the reason for the transformation of wide and braided rivers into linear river systems with a lack of structural diversity, i.e. gravel banks, islands, woody debris, riffles or pools. These i ...

Influence of the widening of a tributary on confluence morphology: preliminary results

Anton Schleiss, Koen Blanckaert, Marcelo Leite Ribeiro, Simon Wampfler

The aim of this work is to obtain a better understanding of the morphological development in alpine river confluences, where special attention is given to the widening of the tributary channel and its influence on bed morphology evolution. Hydraulic tests ...
