Estimation of Taleghan river bank erosion risk using BEHI model
Rivers provide water and energy for nature and humans. Thus, water supply is the most important economic role of rivers. Process of erosion sediment transportation is one of the most important hydrodynamic processes which affect a lot of hydraulic systems such as basins, rivers, coasts and harbors, dams, bridges, farms, and construction facilities. Taleghan River is a major river located in the south hillside of Alborz. The river has dynamic behavior affected by various factors including geology, gradient, land use, hydraulic flow condition, and morphological behavior. Analyzing the stability of Taleghan river bank using mathematical and statistical models and comparing its results with field observations is the aim of this research. Therefore, to achieve this aim BEHI model and statistical one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) is used and then compared with field and visual observations. The results concerning scoring show moderate to high danger of riverbank erosion in upstream sections and high to very high danger of riverbank erosion in downstream sections. According to the results of one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), the effects of gradient and discharge have been more than the other parameters. In this analysis, the meaningful parameters consist of mean depth; bank full, riverbank high, discharge, and gradient. According to the results, erodible edges were identified.
