Evaluation of pier-scour equations for coarse-bed streams Evaluation of pier-scour equations for coarse-bed streams
Streambed scour at bridge piers is among the leading causes of bridge failure in the United States. Several pier-scour equations have been developed to calculate potential scour depths at existing and proposed bridges. Because many pier-scour equations are based on data from laboratory flumes and from cohesionless silt- and sand-bottomed streams, they tend to overestimate scour for piers...

Channel-morphology data for the Tongue River and selected tributaries, southeastern Montana, 2001-02 Channel-morphology data for the Tongue River and selected tributaries, southeastern Montana, 2001-02
Coal-bed methane exploration and production have begun within the Tongue River watershed in southeastern Montana. The development of coal-bed methane requires production of large volumes of ground water, some of which may be discharged to streams, potentially increasing stream discharge and sediment load. Changes in stream discharge or sediment load may result in changes to channel...
