Abstract

This paper shows a methodological proposal to carry out river morphology analysis and sediment transport for urban basins highly intervened by human actions. In this methodology, different activities that will allow doing a detailed analysis for the river morphology and sediment transport in the basin are proposed. Among the steps proposed to implement this methodology, there are: analysis in plant of little basin, altitude profiles analysis of the main sub-basins, field measures (measures of liquid and solid discharge and general observations of the basin morphology), and estimations of sediments load and bed load capacity in the stream. An application to basin of Doña Maria is showed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
