| Abstract: | Joint data compilation, hydrologic and geotechnical information study assembled by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, NED and Colorado State University, to assess streambank erosion along 141-mile reach of Conn. River from Turners Falls Dam, Mass, to headwaters of Wilder Reservoir, Haverhill, N.H. and Wells River, VT. Report includes literature and historical review of Conn. River; existing data collection, collation and evaluation; infield short-term data collection and evaluation; definition and analysis of bank erosion causal factors; and solution alternatives. Report identifies variables causing streambank erosion; summarizes and analyzes causes; distinguishes between general and upper-bank erosion; considers tractive and surface forces; and specifies common techniques used to control bank erosion. Non-structural measures also discussed. Maps, charts, tables, glossary, bibliography, and suggested protection measures. |
