Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical fields of water conservancy projects and sediment measurement technologies, and particularly relates to a method for analyzing bed material sediment particles and related devices. Background Art
[0002] In recent decades, the sediment transport volume in the source areas of rivers in many places has shown an increasing trend. In regions such as the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the Yellow River, and the Tarim River, the rivers carry different amounts of sediment, which silt up the river channels, causing the riverbed to rise year by year, easily leading to river flooding and meandering, and bringing great difficulties to river channel regulation. The river flow velocity in this area is relatively small, and the sediment deposits and becomes bed material. The sediment in the reservoir area is mostly bed material sediment. The long-term sediment deposition makes the reservoir silt up, shortens the project life, reduces the flood control, irrigation, and power generation capabilities of the project. The sediment will also exacerbate the wear of hydraulic machinery and hydraulic structures, increase the maintenance cost and project cost, etc. Sediment also has its beneficial aspects. Coarse particles are good building materials. Fine-grained sediment can be used for irrigation to improve the soil, turning saline-alkali sandy wasteland into fertile fields. Pumping and silting can reinforce the dike, thus enhancing the flood resistance ability, etc. In order to achieve the purpose of making the best use of advantages and eliminating disadvantages, it is necessary to carry out sediment sampling work, conduct sediment particle analysis and sorting, provide a reliable basis for the development of the basin and national economic construction, and solve the key technical short board of sediment reduction and sediment discharge in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau reservoir area.

Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0026] Embodiment 1
[0027] The method for analyzing bedload sediment particles provided by the embodiments of the present application can be applied to an application environment as Figure 1 shown. Among them, the terminal communicates with the server through the network. The data storage system can store the data that the server needs to process.

After receiving the analysis request to be processed, for the analysis request to be processed, the server obtains the light intensity passing through the preset plane at each moment during the sedimentation process of the bedload sediment sample; for each particle size, based on the light intensity passing through the preset plane at each moment, calculates the percentage of the sediment weight less than the particle size; based on each particle size and the percentage of the sediment weight less than the particle size, obtains the particle size distribution and the particle size distribution curve. The server can feedback the analysis result, that is, the particle size distribution and the particle size distribution curve, for the analysis request to the terminal.
[0028] In addition, in some embodiments, the method for analyzing bedload sediment particles can also be implemented by the server or the terminal alone. For example, the terminal can directly process the analysis request to be processed, or the server can obtain the analysis request to be processed from the data storage system and process the analysis request to be processed.
[0029] Among them, the terminal can be, but is not limited to, various desktop computers, laptop computers, smartphones, tablet computers, Internet of Things devices, and portable wearable devices. The Internet of Things devices can be smart speakers, smart TVs, smart air conditioners, smart in-vehicle devices, etc. The portable wearable devices can be smart watches, smart bracelets, head-mounted devices, etc. The server can be implemented by an independent server or a server cluster composed of multiple servers, and can also be a cloud server.
[0030] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, a method for analyzing bedload sediment particles is provided. This method is executed by a computer device, and specifically can be executed alone by a computer device such as a terminal or a server, or jointly executed by a terminal and a server. In the embodiments of the present application, taking this method applied to the Figure 1 server as an example for illustration, the method includes the following steps.
[0031] Step S1: Obtain the light intensity passing through a preset plane at each of multiple moments during the sedimentation process of the bed load sediment sample. The preset plane is any horizontal plane in the sample container filled with the well-mixed suspension of bed load sediment, excluding the highest and lowest horizontal planes. The well-mixed suspension of bed load sediment is a mixture of well-mixed bed load sediment sample and distilled water or a mixture of well-mixed bed load sediment sample and de-salted water. The bed load sediment with different particle sizes in the bed load sediment sample settles to the preset plane at different sedimentation rates.
[0032] Step S2: For each particle size, calculate the percentage of the sediment weight less than the particle size based on the light intensity passing through the preset plane at each moment. The percentage of the sediment weight less than the particle size is the ratio of the sediment content of each particle size less than the particle size to the total sediment content.
[0033] Step S3: Obtain the particle size distribution and the particle size distribution curve based on each particle size and the percentage of the sediment weight less than the particle size.
[0034] By implementing the above steps S1 to S3, in this embodiment, by obtaining the light intensity passing through the preset plane at each of multiple moments during the sedimentation process of the bed load sediment sample, calculating the percentage of the sediment weight less than each particle size based on the light intensity passing through the preset plane at each moment, and obtaining the particle size distribution and the particle size distribution curve based on each particle size and the percentage of the sediment weight less than the particle size, particle analysis can be completed by optical analysis method, and the particle analysis of the bed load sediment can be completed more accurately.
[0035] In this embodiment, an anti-coagulant is also installed in the sample container, which can prevent the bed load sediment sample from descending in a group in the sample container.
[0036] In this embodiment, the calculation formula for the percentage of the sediment weight less than the particle size is:
[0037]
[0038] where P i is the percentage of the sediment weight less than the i-th particle size; n is the number of particle sizes; D i,i+1 is the particle size between the i-th particle size and the (i + 1)-th particle size; k is the extinction coefficient; L is the thickness of the well-mixed suspension of bed load sediment; I0 is the light intensity at the 0-th moment, that is, the light intensity passing through distilled water or de-salted water; is the light intensity at the moment t i when the bed load sediment of the i-th particle size settles to the preset plane; is the light intensity at the moment t i+1 when the bed load sediment of the (i + 1)-th particle size settles to the preset plane.
[0039] This embodiment can also complete suspended sediment measurement or bed load measurement. Suspended sediment measurement is used for water conservancy projects, river regulation, and soil and water conservation, while bed load measurement is used for reservoir sedimentation and riverbed evolution research, thus facilitating subsequent applications. When the riverbed sediment particle analysis method is applied to suspended sediment measurement or bed load measurement, the riverbed sediment sample is the sample obtained after water sample treatment of the riverbed sediment water sample. The riverbed sediment water sample includes the riverbed sediment water sample of each layer obtained by stratified sampling at each riverbed sediment sampling vertical line for each measurement.
[0040] Among them, the water sample treatment includes: filtering and drying the riverbed sediment water sample to obtain the riverbed sediment sample.
[0041] Among them, stratified sampling refers to sampling at different depths of the riverbed sediment sampling vertical line. When stratified sampling, the calculation formula for the sampling volume of the riverbed sediment water sample is:[[]]
[0042]
[0043] Among them, V is the sampling volume of the riverbed sediment water sample; W min is the minimum sand weight; C is the sediment concentration.
[0044] The riverbed sediment particle analysis method of this embodiment further includes: calculating the vertical average particle size distribution of each riverbed sediment sampling vertical line. The calculation formula for the vertical average particle size distribution is:[[]]
[0045]
[0046] Among them, is the vertical average particle size distribution, d is the particle size; H is the vertical depth; m is the number of layers during stratified sampling; P k (d) is the particle size distribution of the kth layer, that is, the particle size distribution obtained by processing the riverbed sediment sample sampled from the kth layer using steps S1 - S3; Δh k is the sampling thickness of the kth layer.
[0047] The riverbed sediment particle analysis method of this embodiment further includes: calculating the cross-sectional average particle size distribution and cross-sectional average particle size of the cross-section composed of all riverbed sediment sampling vertical lines in each measurement.
[0048] The calculation formula for the cross-sectional average particle size distribution is:[[]]
[0049]
[0050] Among them, is the cross-sectional average particle size distribution; X is the number of riverbed sediment sampling vertical lines; W i is the sand weight per unit width of the ith riverbed sediment sampling vertical line; is the vertical average particle size distribution of the i-th vertical line for bed material sampling.
[0051]
[0052] where D is the maximum particle size; ρ s is the density of bed material sediment; A i (d) is the particle size distribution function of the i-th vertical line for bed material sampling.
[0053] The calculation formula for the cross-section average particle size is:
[0054]
[0055] where D avg is the cross-section average particle size; d max is the maximum particle size; d min is the minimum particle size.
[0056] This embodiment can provide a method for particle analysis of bed material sediment samples obtained by automated sampling of bed material sediment in reservoirs, rivers, lakes, etc., that is, a method for particle analysis of bed material sediment, which can perform particle analysis of bed material sediment scientifically, systematically, efficiently and accurately.
[0057] Hereinafter, taking the application to suspended sediment measurement or bed load measurement as an example, the method for particle analysis of bed material sediment in this embodiment will be introduced in detail. The method for particle analysis of bed material sediment includes the following steps:
[0058] Step 1: Sampling of bed material sediment.
[0059] For particle analysis of bed material sediment, sediment sampling is carried out. During each measurement for particle analysis in suspended sediment measurement or bed load measurement, bed material sediment is taken simultaneously, and the number of measurements can be determined according to user requirements.
[0060] In each measurement, stratified sampling is carried out at each vertical line for bed material sampling. Among them, the vertical line for bed material sampling is in the same position as the vertical line for suspended sediment measurement or bed load measurement. The method for determining the number of vertical lines for bed material sampling is: according to the river width and sediment distribution characteristics, arrange the vertical lines for bed material sampling in accordance with the requirements of the "Regulations for Particle Analysis of River Sediment" (SL42-2010) to cover the main flow zone, shoal and transition zone.
[0061] Step 2: Sampling quantity and sand sample treatment of bed material sediment.
[0062] Calculate the required sampling quantity and treat the sand sample.
[0063] (1) Sampling quantity of bed material sediment samples.
[0064] This embodiment refers to the "Regulations for Sediment Particle Analysis of Rivers" (SL42-2010). For bed sediment, it is usually required that the dry sand weight of each bed sediment sample is not less than 0.1 - 0.5 grams. When sampling, it should be ensured that the bed sediment sample can represent the overall characteristics of the bed sediment, and data deviation caused by too little bed sediment sample should be avoided. At this time, the sampling volume V of the corresponding bed sediment water sample can be calculated according to the sediment concentration C (kg / m3 or g / L) and the minimum sand weight W min Calculate:
[0065]
[0066] The sampling volume of the bed sediment water sample is generally 0.5 - 5 liters.
[0067] (2) Sand sample treatment.
[0068] When analyzing bed sediment samples by the water analysis method, wet bed sediment samples must be used. Except for coarse sand and pebbles that are all analyzed by sieving, dry sand analysis is not allowed. For this reason, the water sample is treated by the replacement method. After the water sample treatment, it can be reserved for particle size analysis. The specific steps of treating the bed sediment water sample by the filtration method and the drying method are as follows:
[0069] ① After sampling, use a standard filter paper or filter membrane to filter the bed sediment water sample to separate the sediment and water. The pore size of the filter paper is usually 0.45 microns. After filtration, put the sediment sample into a sealed container.
[0070] ② Drying: Put the sediment sample into an oven and dry it to a constant weight at 105°C to ensure that all moisture evaporates.
[0071] ③ Weighing: After drying, weigh the weight m of the dried sediment d .
[0072] ④ Calculation: Calculate the dry bulk density ρ of the sediment according to the following formula d .
[0073]
[0074] Among them, ρ d is the dry bulk density of the sediment (unit: g / cm 3 or kg / m 3 ); m d is the mass of the sediment in the completely dry state (unit: g or kg); V is the volume of the sediment (unit: cm3 or m3).
[0075] When concentrating the water sample of bed material sediment, no chemical should be used to accelerate the sedimentation. For the water analysis method, distilled water or demineralized water produced by ion exchange resin must be used. To prevent the bed material sediment sample from descending in a mass during analysis, an anti-flocculant can be added to the concentrated water sample (i.e., distilled water or demineralized water). Generally, 25% ammonia water is used as the anti-flocculant, or other chemicals with better anti-flocculation effects, such as sodium metaphosphate and water glass, can also be added.
[0076] Let the collected water sample of bed material sediment stand for 1 day. If flocculation and subsidence are found, or the upper part of the deposited sediment shows a loose flocculent state, it indicates the presence of water-soluble salts in the water that cause the sediment to descend in a mass. In this case, the following methods can be used for treatment:
[0077] ① Flushing method: Pour the water sample into a beaker, heat it to boiling, and after standing and sedimentation, draw out some clear water, then dilute and precipitate it with hot distilled water, and draw out the clear water again. Repeat this process until there are no water-soluble salts.
[0078] ② Filtration method: Stick a hard filter paper on the funnel, pour the sand sample into the funnel, and then pour in hot distilled water for filtration. During filtration, the liquid level in the funnel should always be 5 mm higher than the sand sample until the filtration of water-soluble salts is completed.
[0079] Step 3: Conduct sediment particle analysis using the optical analysis method in the water analysis method, and calculate the particle size distribution and the particle size distribution curve.
[0080] Based on the particle composition of the bed material sediment, analyze the particle size distribution and draw the particle size distribution curve. The abscissa of the particle size distribution curve is a logarithmic coordinate, representing the sediment particle size, and the ordinate is a probability grid coordinate, representing the percentage of the sand weight less than a certain particle size, including the measurement of the extinction amount and the calculation of the particle size distribution.
[0081] (1) Dynamic monitoring of light intensity attenuation and model construction.
[0082] Put the bed material sediment sample into distilled water or demineralized water, stir evenly to form a well-mixed suspension of bed material sediment. Based on an optoelectronic particle analyzer, continuously monitor the change in light intensity of the bed material sediment sample during the sedimentation process, and construct a quantitative relationship model between the extinction amount and particle characteristics:
[0083]
[0084] where E is the extinction amount; I0 and I are the light intensities after passing through pure water (i.e., distilled water or demineralized water) and turbid water (i.e., the well-mixed suspension of bed material sediment, specifically referring to distilled water or demineralized water containing the bed material sediment sample), respectively.
[0085] (2) Dynamic correlation between the extinction amount and particle parameters.
[0086] The extinction amount E and the sediment concentration C s, the mathematical model between the particle size D and the optical path L is as follows:
[0087]
[0088] Among them, k is the extinction coefficient, which is related to the geometric shape of sediment particles; C s is the sediment concentration of the muddy water; L is the thickness of the muddy water; D is the sediment particle size.
[0089] (3) Dynamic modeling of the sedimentation process in stages.
[0090] ① After the water sample is mixed evenly, at time t1, the sediment with a particle size equal to the first particle size D1 just sinks to the incident light ray (i.e., sinks to the preset plane). At this time, the calculation formula for the extinction amount is as follows:
[0091]
[0092] Among them, is the light intensity at time t1 when the bed sediment with the first particle size sinks to the preset plane; I1, I2..., I i is the light intensity after extinction caused by sediment with particle sizes D1, D2,..., D i respectively. D2 is the second particle size, D i is the i-th particle size; I n is the light intensity after extinction caused by sediment with the smallest n-th particle size D n ; is the extinction amount formed separately by sediment with various particle sizes.
[0093] ② At time t2, all sediment with a particle size greater than D2 sinks below the incident light ray, and the sediment with a particle size of D2 just sinks to the incident light ray. At this time, the calculation formula for the extinction amount is as follows:
[0094]
[0095] Among them, is the light intensity at time t2 when the bed sediment with the second particle size sinks to the preset plane.
[0096] ③ The calculation formula for the light intensity after extinction caused by sediment with a particle size between D1 and D2 is as follows:
[0097]
[0098] Among them, is the extinction amount of sediment with a particle size between D1 and D2; I 1,2 is the light intensity after extinction caused by sediment with a particle size between D1 and D2; C s1,2 is the sediment concentration of sediment with a particle size between D1 and D2; D 1,2 is the particle size of sediment with a particle size between D1 and D2.
[0099] (4) Recursive calculation of the gradation sediment concentration and correction of the extinction coefficient.
[0100] ① The calculation formula for the sediment concentration of sediment with particle size between D1 and D2 is as follows:
[0101]
[0102] ② The calculation formula for the sediment concentration of sediment with particle size between D2 and D3 is as follows:
[0103]
[0104] Among them, C s2,3 is the sediment concentration of sediment with particle size between D2 and D3; D 2,3 is the particle size of sediment with particle size between D2 and D3; is the light intensity at the time t3 when the bed sediment of the 3rd particle size settles to the preset plane.
[0105] ③ The total sediment concentration in the suspension water sample is equal to the sum of the sediment concentrations of various particle sizes, and the calculation formula is as follows:
[0106] C s = C s1,2 + C s2,3 + … + C si,i+1 + … + C sn-1,n ;
[0107] Among them, C si,i+1 is the sediment concentration of sediment with particle size between D i and D i+1 , D i+1 is the (i + 1)th particle size; C sn-1,n is the sediment concentration of sediment with particle size between D n-1 and D n , D n-1 is the (n - 1)th particle size.
[0108] ④ In the well-mixed suspension, the percentage of the sediment weight less than a certain particle size can be obtained by the ratio of the sediment concentrations of each particle size less than a certain particle size to the total sediment concentration:
[0109]
[0110] Among them, P i is the percentage of the sediment weight less than the ith particle size; n is the number of particle sizes; D i,i+1 is the particle size between the ith particle size and the (i + 1)th particle size; k is the extinction coefficient; L is the thickness of the well-mixed suspension of bed sediment; I0 is the light intensity at the 0th moment; is the light intensity at the time t i when the bed sediment of the ith particle size settles to the preset plane; is the time t when the bed sediment of the (i + 1)-th particle size settles to the preset plane i+1 of the light intensity
[0111] Since the known particle sizes D1 to D n and the light intensity at each moment are known, the time when the sediment of each particle size settles to the preset plane can be determined by the existing sediment settlement formula, and thus and the percentage of the sediment weight of the particle size can be calculated. It should be noted that D1 to D n are multiple particle sizes selected according to requirements. There will be other particle sizes between two adjacent particle sizes, so there will be D i,i+1 , which is the particle size between the i-th particle size and the (i + 1)-th particle size
[0112] Step 4: Calculate the vertical average particle size distribution, cross-section average particle size distribution and cross-section average particle size
[0113] Organize the particle size distribution in the optical analysis method, deduce the vertical average particle size distribution, cross-section average particle size distribution and cross-section average particle size of the bed sediment, and the cross-section average particle size distribution curve can also be drawn
[0114] (1) Integral calculation model of vertical average particle size distribution
[0115] Establish a discretized integral model for the bed sediment samples on the sampling vertical line of the bed sediment obtained by the depth-integrating method. Assume that the vertical depth H is divided into m equally divided layers (i.e., sampling layers), and the particle size distribution of the k-th layer is P k (d), then the vertical average particle size distribution is:
[0116]
[0117] where d is the particle size; Δh k is the sampling thickness of the k-th layer, and satisfies
[0118] (2) Vector superposition calculation of cross-section average particle size distribution
[0119] For the calculation of the cross-section average particle size distribution, use the full cross-section mixing method for sampling and particle analysis, and its results can be used as the cross-section average particle size distribution curve. Define that the cross-section consists of n sampling vertical lines of the bed sediment to form a spatial distribution matrix, and establish a vector superposition model based on the sediment weight weight:
[0120]
[0121] where, is the cross-section average particle size distribution; X is the number of sampling vertical lines of the bed sediment; W iis the sediment weight per unit width of the i-th bed material sampling vertical line and is calculated by the following formula:
[0122]
[0123] where D is the maximum particle size; ρ s is the density of bed material sediment; A i (d) is the particle size distribution function (kg / m 3 ·mm - 1) of the i-th bed material sampling vertical line.
[0124] (3) Fractal analysis calculation of the cross-section average particle size.
[0125] ① Discretize the using the Logistic curve, and divide the particle size interval [d min , d max into p geometric series groups:
[0126]
[0127] where d j is the representative value of the particle size of the j-th group; are the upper and lower limits of the particle size of the j-th group respectively.
[0128] ② Establish a grading differential equation:
[0129]
[0130] where ΔP j is the increment of sediment weight percentage (%) corresponding to the particle size of the j-th group, representing the cumulative probability change of the cross-section average particle size grading curve in a specific particle size interval; is the function value of the cross-section average particle size grading function at the upper limit of the particle size of the j-th group; is the function value of the cross-section average particle size grading function at the lower limit of the particle size of the j-th group.
[0131] This differential equation quantifies the proportion of sediment weight in particle size groups through the algebraic difference of the endpoint grading values, providing the core weight parameter for the weighted calculation of the subsequent geometric average particle size.
[0132] ③ Construct a fractal weighted matrix:
[0133]
[0134] where D avg is the cross-section average particle size.
[0135] When ΔP j →0, the equation adopts a continuous integral form:
[0136]
[0137] In this embodiment, and a two - level integration system of vertical line - cross section is constructed, and the operability of actual engineering measurement is realized through spatial discretization processing. The geometric series grouping method is adopted to ensure calculation stability when the particle size span is large. The fractal geometry theory is innovatively introduced. Through exponential weighted average, the particle size distribution characteristics of non - uniform sand are accurately characterized. A traceable mathematical model from microscopic particle analysis to macroscopic cross - section parameters is established for the whole set of algorithms, and a closed - loop calculation chain is formed between each formula through the weight transfer factor.
[0138] This embodiment is used to conduct bed sediment sampling and measurement for a certain reservoir. The water flow velocity of this reservoir is slow and there is sediment deposition. 96.8% of it is bed sediment, which is representative of the particle analysis of the bed sediment in the reservoir area. Through research and analysis, the advantages and positive effects of this embodiment are as follows:
[0139] (1) The scientificity and systematicness of the method for analyzing bed sediment particles. By controlling the sampling amount of sediment samples and applying the optical analysis method, this embodiment can quickly and accurately obtain the particle size distribution. In the measurement of a certain reservoir, the particle analysis results cover the range of 0.002 mm to 2 mm, providing a scientific basis for reservoir silt control and specifically providing reliable technical support for reservoir dredging, river regulation, and ecological environment protection.
[0140] (2) The accuracy of the method for analyzing bed sediment particles. The geometric series grouping method is used to discretize the particle size interval, effectively solving the problem of calculation stability when the particle size span is large. The fractal geometry theory is introduced, and the particle size distribution characteristics of non - uniform sand are quantified through exponential weighted average, enhancing the characterization ability of complex sediment structures. At the same time, the two - level integration system of vertical line - cross section forms a seamless connection between the microscopic particle analysis results (vertical line average gradation) and the macroscopic cross - section parameters (cross - section average particle size) through spatial discretization modeling, forming a full - chain mathematical model from data acquisition to engineering application.
[0141] (3) The efficiency of the method for analyzing bed sediment particles. The closed - loop calculation chain of the weight transfer factor in the algorithm design and the staged dynamic modeling (such as calculating the extinction amount in stages during the sedimentation process) simplify the complexity of actual operation and improve the executability in engineering scenarios. The whole process from stratified sampling to calculating the bed sediment particle size strictly follows industry specifications (such as SL42 - 2010), taking into account both scientific rigor and engineering implementation efficiency.
[0142] Taking the Tarilega Hydropower Station in 2024 as an example, for the measurement frequency layout and sampling operation of the riverbed sediment particle analysis, in the specific implementation process, a macroscopic sediment distribution model of the basin was established through satellite remote sensing image interpretation, and an unmanned ship equipped with a sampling device and an optoelectronic particle analyzer was synchronously deployed to carry out underwater dynamic sampling.
[0143] For the reservoir area, systematic sampling was carried out at the end of the dry season (April 18 - April 20). According to the requirements of the "Regulations for River Sediment Particle Analysis" (SL42 - 2020), within a 30 - km research reach, with the control condition that the change rate of the river channel curvature radius > 15%, 21 characteristic cross - sections were arranged. Five vertical lines for bed sediment sampling were set at each cross - section for stratified sampling, with 1 surface layer sampling, 1 middle layer sampling at 0.5 m, and 1 bottom layer sampling at 1 m. A total of 18 samples were obtained per single cross - section.
[0144] Hydrological parameters were recorded synchronously during the sampling process: flow velocity 0.8 - 1.5 m / s, water temperature 4.2 - 6.8 °C, sediment concentration 0.35 - 1.72 kg / m 3 . The following steps were adopted for sand sample treatment: First, the bed sand particles were filtered; then the bed sand was dried; finally, the dry density of the sediment was determined by the drying and weighing method. The dry density data of the sediment is shown in Table 1 below.

[0146]
[0147] Optical analysis method in the water analysis method was used for sediment particle analysis of the reservoir area bed sand, including light intensity attenuation monitoring, correlation between extinction amount and particle parameters, phased modeling of the sedimentation process, recursive calculation of graded sediment concentration, calculation of the average particle gradation of vertical lines and cross - sections, and fractal analysis of the average particle size of the cross - section.
[0148] The analysis results of the bed sand particles at typical cross - sections (such as the right side of Cross - section 2 in the reservoir area) are shown in Table 2 and Figure 3 , and the results show that the median particle size D50 of the riverbed sediment is 0.056 m, which conforms to the sedimentation characteristics of mountain rivers.
