| description | River! A valuable asset of the Mother Nature. Its contribution are uncountable, not only
that it provide us with the source of water, food and transportation, it’s also harvest life
form within it. However, river is like a double edge swords. Past through the centuries,
nature disaster such as flood cause by river had taken always many life and cause
unimaginable damage to our asset. Even small particle such as sediment inside the river
had its own way of affecting our way of life. Due to that, the transportation factor of
sediment has to be identified and represent in equation formation so that people can
predict and counter attack the foe that is coming. The present study evaluates several
existing equations using data of selected rivers in Malaysia (Ghani, 2003). New data were
also collected from several sites along Kulim River, Kedah. These data were later used to
modified the existing equations for application of the rivers in Malaysia. The modified
equations are used to predict the natural phenomena and characteristic of the sediment
transport in rivers to secure human life and fortune. |
