Restoration Consortium Workshop: Sediment Transport for Restoration Design

Workshop/Training

This course is intended for those who wish to understand and apply the principles of sediment transport to alluvial channel assessment and design. Principles of open channel flow and sediment transport are combined with watershed-scale, hydrologic and sediment source analysis to place channel assessment and design in the appropriate context. Tools for estimating sediment supply at the watershed to reach level are applied in class exercises. Threshold and alluvial channel design methods are presented along with guidelines for assessing and incorporating uncertainty. The course balances advance reading, lecture, field work, and hands-on exercises for estimating sediment supply, calculating sediment transport rates, and forecasting channel response to water and sediment supply. This course is intended for participants who are familiar with basic principles of river geomorphology.

Instructors: Dr. Peter Wilcock, Tyler Allred, Dr. Patrick Belmont
Dates: July 29 - Aug 2, 2024
Cost: $1850 ($1600 if registered before June 1st)
