Presented by Phil Lawrence, HR Wallingford Ltd, United Kingdom
This presentation focuses on sediment control options and design methods in river engineering and watershed management. It examines sediment transport processes across mountain fronts and alluvial plains, including variations in sediment size, concentration, and movement within major river systems. The session also discusses field measurement techniques and compares observed sediment behavior with model predictions, while highlighting necessary design modifications for higher-velocity flows. Overall, the video provides a practical overview of sediment management approaches to support more accurate hydraulic design and sustainable river system planning.
