“…The exchange coefficient, f e , normally ranges between 0.005 and 0.05 (Kuijper et al 2005). A successful means to reduce f e emerged from Christiansen (1987) and more recently outlined by Smith et al (2001).…”

“…Successful implementations of such strategies have been well documented (e.g. Kuijper et al 2005;Winterwerp et al 1994) but in spite of these, not all harbors, and especially not all riverine harbors, are designed with the potential consequences of siltation in mind.…”

Upper Mississippi River Flow and Sediment Characteristics and Their Effect on a Harbor Siltation Case

Upper Mississippi River flow and sediment characteristics downstream of St. Louis, MO are presented in this study. Available and measured data were used to assess a harbor siltation case and dredging needs. Such data are also useful to researchers and engineers conducting work in the Mississippi River, and large rivers in general. Flows were characterized in terms of the mean annual hydrograph, the flow duration curve and the mean annual, dominant and effective discharges. Suspended and bed material sediments were characterized by grain size distributions (GSDs). Suspended sediment concentrations were characterized with a sediment-rating curve, a mean annual sediment-graph and a duration curve. The results of the analyses were used to assess harbor sedimentation by comparing GSDs of harbor bed samples with those observed in the river. Bathymetric surveys were used to determine rates and occurrence of sedimentation. The analyses showed that harbor siltation correlates with river conditions, and is driven by wash load in the river, which enters the harbor in suspension and deposits along the bottom due to the lack of flow-through velocities high enough to keep the fine sediments in suspension.

“…The exchange coeffi cient depends on the entrance geometry and can range from 0.005 to 0.05, an order of magnitude difference (Kuijper et al 2005). The most pronounced impact is related to the orientation of the small craft harbor entrance channel to the fl ow.…”

“…The most pronounced impact is related to the orientation of the small craft harbor entrance channel to the fl ow. Vanoni (1975) and Kuijper et al (2005) both present results indicating that the horizontal exchange coeffi cient, and the diversion of stream fl ow and sediment into a harbor mouth (or branch channel), decrease with increasing downstream branch angle [ Fig. 2-55(b)].…”
