across the River Caerfarell‚ in Brecon Beacons National Park. Introduction: In my report‚ I will investigate how well the Bradshaw model fits in river Caerfanell. In particular my report will focus on 3 sub questions; 1. How does the cross-sectional area of the river Caerfanell change with distance downstream? 2. How does the velocity change with distance downstream? 3. How does channel efficiency change with distance downstream? Figure 1: Bradshaw Model shows the changes of river from Upstream

nowadays. The water is used for many reasons such as for drinking‚ increase the water supply for irrigation and to generate hydroelectric power. Besides that‚ the damped rivers also being made as one of the destination for tourism like Tasik Kenyir in Terengganu. The process of constructing the reservoir is being made by damping of a river. We always think that these reservoirs will give us a lot of benefit‚ but how about the negative effect of the existence of this reservoir? Do you know that the construction

reminder of life. In ancient complex river societies water provided a beginning and advancement opportunity in agriculture in that it cared for plants‚ provided for animals‚ replenished drinking water‚ and was a beacon for trade and vocation. One main use of water was providing fertile silt and fresh water for agriculture and planting necessary fruits and vegetables. Due to the excessive flooding and heavy rain falls that were common to the complex river societies in ancient Egypt‚ Asia‚ and

sediment release in a dam removal project anywhere in the world. Because of the amount of sediment behind large dams like the Elwha‚ the demolition must be done gradually over time to ensure that there is not an overflow of sediment rushed down the river which could cause significant damage to the landscape and the organisms which inhabit it. At the time of the dam removal the Elwha was holding behind it 15‚000‚000 cubic yards of silt. Sediment buildup isn’t the only thing that dams can change about

The documentary also showed how people living under the bridges in the Pasig River make income out of garbage they get from the River. The documentary also depicts how much Pasig River is polluted. It also tackles about the feelings and opinions of people living alongside river; about their relocation‚ the experts view on them

In the upper course of a river gradients are steep and river channels are narrow. Vertical erosion is greatest in the upper course of a river. As the result of this typical features include steep valley sides‚ interlocking spurs‚ rapids‚ gorges and waterfalls. When a river runs over alternating layers of hard and soft rock‚ rapids and waterfalls may form. Waterfalls commonly form where water rushes down steep hillsides in upland areas and quickly erodes the rocks. The height and number of waterfalls

of a river. (10 Marks) The Bradshaw model is a geographical model that shows us how the characteristics of a river changes between upstream to the downstream. The Bradshaw model allows us to see do the river’s characteristics such as‚ average velocity‚ channel depth‚ load quantity and particle size of the load‚ increases or decreases and how much do they change. However this model can’t be exactly right for all rivers around the world because of the external factors that effects the rivers. Average

Alwuha River which is the tributary to Awash River. Most of these streams join the main river at a angular pattern that show E-W running secondary faults dissecting the S-N running primary faults. Most streams of the area are intermittent except Tikur-wuha‚ which is the principal collector of streams found west of the town and downstream makes Alwuha River. Srinka and Mersa Rivers are perennial streams located south of Woldiya town‚ within 50kms radius‚ and are the tributaries of Awash River. Four

regarded as lying between the Tropic of Cancer and the Arctic Circle or the Tropic of Capricorn and the Antarctic Circle and therefore rivers investigated in this essay will fall within these parameters. Rural catchments are slightly harder to define‚ as today very few large rivers do not have some form of urban development within their catchments area. In this essay a river that is still in a predominantly rural catchment will be discussed even if there are areas of urban land within the catchment. Humans

(DISASTER RISK ANALYSIS OF VARIOUS HAZARDS IN MAJULI) INTRODUCTION Majuli is one of the largest river islands in the world (26 45N – 27 12N and 93 39 E – 94 35 altitude of 60 – 95m above msl). The original land mass of Majuli was 1250 Sq. km (1950) which has significantly reduced to 650 Sq. km (2001) due to erosion. The island is bounded by the river Brahmaputra on the South‚ the river Subansiri on the North-West and Kherkatia Suti in Northeast. Geomorphologically the island is alluvial.
