In cold climates, the formation of border ice along riverbanks during winter introduces changes to river dynamics and geomorphology, influencing sediment transport and bed morphology. While there is substantial research on sediment transport in open channels and fully ice-covered conditions, studies on partially ice-covered channels are relatively limited.
This presentation highlights laboratory experiments conducted at the University of Manitoba’s Hydraulics Research and Testing Facility, exploring how factors such as ice extent, flow strength, and border ice symmetry affect bedload transport and bedform characteristics. Findings confirm that partial ice cover has a significant influence on bedforms within the channel and on the distribution of bedload transport, particularly at lower flow strengths. This research provides essential insights for river engineering in cold climates, with implications for both academic study and industry practice.

The study examines the link between El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and streamflow behavior in Peru’s Piura and Rimac basins, regions often impacted by ENSO-driven floods. It aims to update the correlation between ENSO indices and streamflow in these areas and to assess flash flood behavior using a large-scale particle image velocimetry (LSPIV) method. The researchers found that correlations between ENSO and streamflow have fluctuated over the past decades, with significant changes beginning in the 2000s, indicating shifts in flood and drought risks. Additionally, the use of LSPIV at SMVN stations enabled accurate, low-cost measurements of flash flood flows in specific locations. The study’s findings contribute to understanding how ENSO impacts flood patterns, aiding in future flood management and preparedness.
