This course is intended for those who wish to understand and apply the principles of sediment transport to alluvial channel assessment and design. Principles of open channel flow and sediment transport are combined with watershed-scale, hydrologic and sediment source analysis to place channel assessment and design in the appropriate context. Threshold and alluvial channel design methods are presented along with guidelines for assessing and incorporating uncertainty. The course balances advance reading, lecture, field work, and hands-on exercises for estimating sediment supply, calculating sediment transport rates, and forecasting channel response to water and sediment supply. This course is intended for participants who are familiar with basic principles of river geomorphology.

1. Develop flood series, specify flood frequency Design Q.
2. Estimate sediment supply: develop supply sediment rating curve [Monday, Wednesday]
3. Planning phase: What slope S will transportthe sediment supply with the available flow? Calculate (b, S) combination {S and valley slope determine sinuosity} [Thursday]
4. Develop flow duration curve
5. Design phase: Develop trial design, w/ desired channel geometry &composition.Use 1-d model to route sediment through the design reach over the flow duration curve.{Build 1-d hydraulic model for trial design. Calculate cumulative transport over flow duration curve at each section; evaluate sediment continuity.} [Tuesday, Thursday]
6. Bottlenecks or blowouts? Adjust for sediment continuity [Thursday]
