Modelling of cohesive sediment transport / B.G. Krishnappan.: En13-5/91-79E-PDF

"One of the weak links in existing water quality models is the cohesive sediment transport component. Cohesive sediments play an important role in the transport of a number of persistent and toxic contaminants. For a proper prediction of transport and ultimate fate of sediment-bound contaminants, a cohesive sediment transport model is an essential prerequisite. In this paper, a modelling framework is outlined for predicting the transport of cohesive sediments in natural rivers"--Management perspective.
