Abstract

The lower reach of the Rupnarayan Rjver has experierced a net shoaling of 26.57 million with 42.04 million m3 deposition and 15.47 million m3 scouring during the last 20 years. Attempts have been made to calculate the available shear stress and critical shear stress in connection with the grain size of sediments.
