At-a-station measurement and prediction of flow and sediment fluxes in rivers

This project will make a major contribution to improve channel rehabilitation projects, which are reconstructing streams to imitate the natural form of the stream. These projects are very costly and their failure can cause high financial losses. The results of this project will lead to a decrease or elimination of the financial losses by improving the design of restored channels. In addition, this project will improve protection of the species-at-risk “Redside Dace” by improving the accuracy of monitoring the deleterious sediments entering their habitat.
