UK flooding is at the forefront of the news and flooded houses are left with a layer of sediment when the floodwaters recede. This month’s newsletter looks at China’s Yellow River, named because of its colour, due to the huge amount of fine sediment it carries – around 4.38 million tonnes per day. Because of this, the flow behaviour is different from many other rivers. This newsletter also explores a third year Individual project on river sediments and some work on Tsunami Engineering.
