Channel Design

Channel Design

In order to build dams, roads, bridges, levees, … and know where it is safe to build … and to design channels… and to protect aquatic habitat … and … We need to know how much water there is!

How is the amount of water in a stream or river described?

Stream Measurements height of water (stage) velocity discharge (volume per time)
