Summary of Guide4.1 This guide establishes criteria for a complete sedimentdata set and provides guidelines for the collection of data aboutnon-cohesive sediments.5. Significance and Use5.1 This guide describes what parameters should be mea-sured and stored
10、to obtain a complete sediment and hydraulicdata set that could be used to compute sediment transport usingany prominently known sediment-transport equations.5.2 The criteria will address only the collection of data onnoncohesive sediment. A noncohesive sediment is one thatconsists of discrete partic
11、les and whose movement depends onthe particular properties of the particles themselves (1). Theseproperties can include particle size, shape, density, and positionon the streambed with respect to other particles. Generally,sand, gravel, cobbles, and boulders are considered to benoncohesive sediments

United States1parameters that, although are not critical, would add significantinformation to the data set if recorded.6.2 Sediment Parameters (Minimal):6.2.1 There are
16、give basic sediment parameters that must becollected in order to have a complete data set. They are:concentration, bedload, bed material, particle-size distribution,and specific gravity.6.2.1.1 ConcentrationReport concentration of suspended-sediment or total-sediment samples in milligrams per litre(
17、mg/L) or in parts per million (ppm). Collect these samples insuch a way that they represent either the point, vertical, or crosssection sampled. Follow sampling guides set forth in GuideD4411 or in Ref (2) when collecting suspended-sediment ortotal-load samples.6.2.1.2 BedloadReport discharge of bed
18、load in mega-grams per day (Mg/d) or some other form of mass per timeunit. The procedures for the collection of bedload samples,both in a flume and in the field, have not been standardized aswell as those for suspended sediment. This is in part becausethe sampler development has not achieved the sta
19、te of unifor-mity that the suspended-sediment samplers have and becausenot enough is currently known about bedload transport in openchannels to accurately define a protocol for data collection.However, the procedure outlined in Ref (2) appears to be areasonable approach to the problem and gives the
20、state ofknowledge and equipment at the present time.6.2.1.3 Bed MaterialBecause the bed material is theprimary source of noncohesive sediments, collect detailedsamples. Most field bed-material sampling programs have beenrestricted to sampling sand-bed streams because of the overalllack of knowledge
21、and the practical problems associated withsampling gravel-bed streams (3) . References (2) and (3),aswell as Guide D4823, present several methods for collection ofbed-material samples from gravel-bed streams. Also, some ofthe equipment and procedures given in Ref (2) and GuideD4823 can be used to co
22、llect samples from sand bed streams.6.2.1.4 Particle-Size Distribution Record the particle-sizedistribution in percent finer than a given diameter size. Themost generally used size grading system for sediment work inthe United States is the grade scale proposed by the Subcom-mittee on Sediment Termi
23、nology of the American GeophysicalUnion (AGU), which is an extension of the Wentworth scale(1). Determine as an absolute minimum the percent finer thanand greater than 0.062 mm. Ideally, determine all applicablebreaks given on the AGU scale (1). Determine particle sizeeither as a physical size (siev
24、e) or as a sedimentation (fall)diameter. Whichever method is used, record the method ofdetermination. Guide D4822 presents a way to help choosewhich method might work best given the particle sizes to besampled and the units of the distribution desired. Several of themore common particle-size analysi
25、s methods are given in Ref(4).6.2.1.5 Preform particle-size distribution analysis onsuspended-sediment, total-load, bedload, and bed-materialsamples. Results should indicate whether the diameters deter-mined are sieve, fall, intermediate axis, or nominal diameters,and whether they are percent finer
26、than by mass, volume, ornumber of particles.6.2.1.6 Record the method or specific piece of equipment,or both, used to determine particle-size distribution.6.2.1.7 Specific GravityThe specific gravity of a particleeffects to how the particle reacts in the flow. Most of the timethe specific gravity is
27、 assumed to be 2.65. Although this is truemost of the time, Brownlie (5) points out that about half of J.J. Francos data has a specific gravity of 1.30 and that thefollowing data sets have these ranges in specific gravity:Pang-Yung Ho, 2.45 to 2.70; C. R. Neill, 1.36 to 2.59; and U.S.Waterways Exper
28、iment Station, 1936c, 1.03 to 1.85.6.3 Sediment Parameters (Additional):6.3.1 The following parameters are considered to be onesthat are not absolutely necessary for a complete data set butwould give significant additional information and clarificationto the data.6.3.1.1 Specific DiametersCalculated
29、 diameters such asD16, D35,D50,D65,D84, and D90are quite often used insediment transport equations. Having these computed diametersizes stored in the data bases will allow everyone using the datain the future to use the same values for these percentiles, thusavoiding some additional sources of error
30、s when comparingtheir results to the original developers results. Store diametersin millimetres and give the type, that is, fall, sieve, etc.6.3.1.2 Method of CollectionDocument how the sampleswere collected. It is often very important to know if thesamples were collected from single vertical or mul
31、tiverticals,surface dipped, or point samples. This not only is important forsuspended-sediment and total-load samples, but also is impor-tant for bedload and bed-material samples. If multiple verticalsare used to collect the sample, note the number of verticalsused and some general description of th
32、eir placement in thecross section. If the sample is collected from a single point orvertical, identify the collection point.6.3.1.3 SamplerRecord the type of sampler and nozzlesize. The US-D, US-DH, and US-P series samplers (1) aredepth integrating and point integrating samplers that collectsamples
33、of the water sediment mixture isokinetically. Thisensures the proper concentration of sand is sampled from thestream. When collecting bedload samples, in addition to thesampler type and nozzle size, record the bag mesh opening sizeand nozzle flare if appropriate for the sampler being used.6.4 Hydrau
34、lic Parameters (Minimal):6.4.1 There are four major hydraulic parameters that shouldbe collected to provide a complete sediment-transport data set.They are water discharge, width, depth, and slope.6.4.1.1 Discharge, WaterThe amount or rate of waterflowing past the sampling point or cross section at
35、the time ofsampling is extremely critical to understanding the interpreta-tion of the sediment data collected. Chapter 1 of Ref (6) givesa good summary of how surface-water discharge data can becollected. Record water discharge in cubic metres per second(m3/s).6.4.1.2 WidthChannel or flume width is
36、important incomputing other hydraulic parameters, such as area and meanvelocity, and for determining depth to width ratios that areused, among other things, to assess the bank or boundaryeffects. In addition, repeated measurements of channel width atD5387 93 (2013)2the same location over a period of
37、 time can be useful, whenused with other data, in determining bank and channel stabili-zation.6.4.1.3 DepthRecord the average depth of flow. Thisdepth is normally calculated by dividing the area of flow by thechannel or flume width.6.4.1.4 SlopeThere are three common types of slope thatare used: bed
38、, water surface, and energy. For whichever slopeis measured, or computed, record the value and type.6.5 Hydraulic Parameters (Additional):6.5.1 AreaCross sectional area of flow is normally one ofthe parameters computed when making dischargemeasurements, especially in the field. It is used in computi
39、ngaverage stream depth in natural channels.6.5.2 Gauge HeightRecord gauge height, or stage, whenrepetitious measurements are made at a site over a long periodof time or when flow conditions might be changing during thetime taken to collect the sediment data, or both. Referencegauge height to some fi
40、xed point at the site. By periodicallyrecording gauge height, water discharge, and cross sectionalarea, overall change of scour or fill in a channel. Also,assessment can be made of any changes in flow that occurduring and between collection of sediment data, for examplebetween the time the suspended
41、-sediment samples were col-lected and the bedload discharge was measured, can beassessed.6.5.3 Hydraulic RadiusCompute hydraulic radius fromthe area and wetted perimeter. Sometimes it is computed as,and assumed to be equivalent to, the average stream depth. Itis always good to record what was used a
42、s the hydraulic radiusand to describe how it was computed.6.5.4 Roughness CoeffcientRecord a roughnesscoefficient, usually either Mannings “n” or Chezys “C”.Estimate either in the field (7, 8) or compute using otherhydraulic information.6.6 Other Parameters:6.6.1 In addition to the parameters listed
43、 above, record thefollowing.6.6.1.1 TemperatureRecord temperature for each sedi-ment data set collected. The concentration and distribution ofsand particles with depth is affected by water temperature (1).Lane and others (9) found that sediment transport for the samewater discharge was approximately
44、 2.5 times greater in thewinter than in the summer on the lower Colorado River.6.6.1.2 Sample InformationRecord information about thesample. As a minimum, record the date, time, and samplinglocation (that is, stream name and location of sampling pointon the stream). Record any information pertinent
45、to the sample,such as any angle between the cross section and the perpen-dicular of the flow. If the samples were collected from a flume,note this as well as the location of the flume.6.6.1.3 Bed FormsIf possible, record a description of thebed forms present at the time of data collection. If the be
46、dforms cannot be observed, record a description of the watersurface, that is, standing waves, boils, smooth, etc. Bed formcan be a major contribution to the overall bed roughness of astream. They also can cause alternating increases and decreasesin stream depth and thus can cause locally strong eddi
47、es, whichcan bring about larger, short-term variations in sedimentconcentration.6.6.1.4 Conductivity/Dissolved SolidsLike temperature,changes in dissolved solids can affect sediment-transport rates.Increases in dissolved solid can cause increases in sediment-transport rates for the same flow conditi
48、ons.6.6.1.5 Site DescriptionWhether the samples are collectedin a flume or in the field, give a general description of thesampling site. Special note should be made of flow conditions,weather, sampling apparatus used, anything upstream or down-stream that might have affected the sample collection pr
49、ocess,and any tributary inflow that might have affected flow ormixing at the sampling cross section.6.6.1.6 Particle ShapeSize alone may not be sufficient toadequately describe sediment particles (1), also, use shape androughness (p. 21 of Ref (1) ). Shape describes the form of aparticle. Roughness is a measure of the sharpness of radius ofcurvature of the edges.6.6.1.7 CollectorRecord the name of the individual(s) thatcollected the sample. This will allow others analyzing the datato evaluate the experience of the collector and therefore bebetter ab
