Table of Contents 1. INTRODUCTION Tinekhu Khola Small Hydropower Project (TKSHP) with an Installed Capacity of 990 kW utilizes flow from Tinekhu Khola which is located at Suri and Jhyaku VDC’s of Dolakha District‚ Janakpur zone in Eastern Development Region of Nepal. Tinekhu Khola Small Hydropower Project (The Project) is Run off River (RoR) type with its headworks located in Tinekhu River at some 3 km upstream from the confluence of Tamakoshi River and Tinekhu River.

BAY RIVER DELTA The Morant Bay River Delta was our first location on the geography trip This delta is known as an arcuate delta. It is 4000m in width. The delta is orientated in a north to south direction. This delta is made up of a mixture of sediments in sizes from sand to small boulders (sand‚ gravel‚ coble‚ small boulder).It was also noted that the delta is very mature because it had people living on it. Some features that were observed on the Morant bay river delta are: * Flood plain

headlands and bays‚ cliffs and caves. A levee is a slope that regulates the water flow. They are formed when a river overflows the banks and the water that overflows‚ overflows again but this time into the flood plain. When the water goes back the sediments are deposited‚ the smaller particles are deposited further away from the river and the bigger

a beach also helps determine the grain size of the sediment (Bascom‚ 1959). The steeper a beach is‚ the larger the sand particles (Ted Klenk‚ 1999). The water retention of coarse sand is quite low allowing temperatures to rise easily at low tide (MB2050 lecture notes). Any organisms on a coarse particle beach will not only have to deal with the very unstable substrate but also the real danger of desiccation (MB2050 lecture notes). Fine sediment areas do not have much water moving through the particles

tourists‚ and the economy. Many times‚ you will notice the land by the sea eating itself away with time. The term used to describe this event is called coastal erosion. Coastal erosion is the wearing away of land and the removal of beach or dune sediments by wave actions‚ tidal currents‚ wave currents‚ drainage

volume of water in the river (because of tributaries flowing into the river and surface run off) and less energy is used overcoming the lesser friction of the smoother less angular bedload. There is more transportation of material‚ and more suspended sediment. The bedload is smaller and more rounded as it has been subjected to more erosion (namely attrition or corrosion). The main feature seen is the meander. Meander These are bends that form when the slope of a river

The rock will be deteriorated by these weathering elements‚ turning them into sediments. This is where the water cycle comes into to play‚ it often carries sediment down the watershed into any number of basins: deserts‚ swamps‚ the ocean‚ or riverbeds. Eventually‚ there is many of layers of sediment that bury it. Lithification‚ conversion into rock‚ is resulted from the pressures of sediment above‚ forcing sediment to solidify. It is porous and loosely fitting until water comes and fills the pores

base was filled with marine sediments as periodic shallow seas covered the region and glaciers‚ rivers‚ and streams eroded the Rocky and Appalachian Mountains. Today‚ mountain erosion continues to carry debris out onto the plains. When melting snows and heavy rains fill rivers beyond their banks‚ they flood. The waters spread out over the surrounding landscape and drop the load of mud‚ sand‚ and silt they normally channel downstream. Over thousands of years‚ the sediments build up floodplains.
