    Sand cover rate (SCR) is an important factor to explain the foraging habitats of ayu (Plecoglossus altivelis). Hence, a module of riverbed variation in a gravel-bed river with bimodal sediments was developed. The module calculated SCR, and the changes in SCR were defined as being driven by sand transport in the form of a suspended load that is deposited on stones (e.g., cobbles or pebbles) and in the interstices of stones. The prediction accuracy was examined by comparing the calculated SCR with the SCR measured in the field. The results showed that the spatial pattern of sand deposition/erosion predicted by the module was almost close to the measured one, though the predicted SCR tended to be higher/lower than the measured value. Chronological changes in the SCR calculated by the module suggested that sand deposits started forming along shorelines after the peak of a flood and then expanded toward the centers of the flow in channels in the end stage.

  • EFFECT OF HARD-ERODIBLE SOIL LAYER ON SCOUR AROUND EMBANKMENT TOE DUE TO OVERTOPPING FLOW               
    NISHIKAWA Sakura; YAGISAWA Junji
    Journal of Japan Society of Civil Engineers, Ser. B1 (Hydraulic Engineering), Volume:76, Number:2, First page:I_1165, Last page:I_1170, Dec. 2020, [Reviewed]
    At Typhoon No. 19 in 2019, at the site where the embankment was breached in Tokigawa River, it has been confirmed that a stratified soil layer was exposed around back side toe of embankment. The harderodible soil layer (here after HEL) may promote erosion in the upstream direction by preventing downward erosion, and may accelerate the time to breach. Therefore, the objective of this study is to clarify the effect of vertical position of HEL on local scouring around toe of embankment by hydraulic experiments.

     In the experiment, a total of 15 cases were carried out. By examining the residual sediment height, zi around the backside toe of embankment, the conditions under which erosion easily proceeds in the upstream direction were elucidated. As results of the experiment, it was found that the residual soil height ratio, zi/zwo became smaller as the installation height of HEL became shallower. In the case where the height of the HEL is 1/4 zwo and 2/4 zwo, zi/zwo became minimum when h1/H is 0.175.

    Numerical simulation model which can analyze flood flow in rivers and flood inundation inland region in integrally was developed and it was applied to the Arakawa River basin including Kawajima town. The flood inundation characteristics (inundation direction and time to reach at each primary evacuation site (here after PES)) were elucidated considering two inundation conditions (overtopping occurs from Ichinogawa river (Case A) and Tokigawa river (Case B)). The big difference for the inundation direction can be confirmed between Case A (from north to southeastern) and B (from northwest to southeastern).
     Based on result of flood inundation model, optimum route of evacuation assistance bus was calculated for each inundation type. For Case A, to go around the western PES before overtopping and the eastern PES after overtopping minimized total evacuation time. In contrast, for Case B, to go around the northern PES firstly and the southern PES secondly was optimum for reducing total evacuation time. This result indicates that inundation characteristics should be clarified for proposing effective evacuation plan.

     For elucidating the sand movement characteristics at Namiita coast, in situ and flume experiments were conducted. Field experiments which used colored sand were conducted from Dec. 2014 to Feb. 2015 and from July - Oct. 2015. For both seasons, colored sand (d50=0.6 and 1.0mm) has been confirmed to move not only offing direction (within the shallow region from the critical water depth for the sediment movement) but also shore direction from the setting point. If similar material will be used for the beach nourishment, there is a possibility to contribute to the re-formation of sandy beach.
     Flume experiments with considering different submarine topography (before and after 2011 Tsunami) and wave conditions were conducted. By using experimental results, change of submarine topography through the year was clarified. Even submarine topography after 2011 Tsunami, a tendency of sedimentation was confirmed to be maintained around beach line. These results suggest that sandy beach in Namiita coast might be reformed by conducting beach nourishment.

    Levee breaches occurred at a lot of rivers mainly due to overflow of extreme flood. However it is not clear what hydraulic and material conditions can cause failures of conventional levees or not due to the lack of field data on levee failures. In the present study, we conducted field surveys for levee failures due to overflow erosion and made database of the levee failures. In the field surveys, we collected hydraulic conditions like overflow depth, failure conditions and size of levees. The results indicated that 1) the levee breach appeared at overflow depth more than 0.5m, corresponding to the previous studies, and 2) degree of the levee damages was not appreciably related to the covering conditions of top and slopes of levees.

  • METHOD FOR EVALUATING THE FORESTATION IN A RIVER CONSIDERING THE CHARACTERISTICS OF FLOOD DECLINE AND GEOMORPHOLOGY OF GRAVEL BARS ON THE DEPOSITION OF FINE SAND

    For clarifying the possibility of forestation in gravel bed bars or islands, sediment load change index (SLI) has been proposed considering deposition and washout of fine sand during flood discharge is declined. The applicability of this index was validated in the middle stream reach of the Oppe River, the Arakawa River and the Kanna River. Before and after typhoons in 2007, 2011 2012 and 2013, field investigations were conducted on six gravel bars in four rivers. River flow was also analyzed by two-dimensional depth-averaged Reynolds equations, and SLI was calculated. In comparison with SLI and sand deposition situation on the observed gravel bars, SLI has been found to express well the sand deposition situation on most of observed gravel bars. However, when this method is applied to the gravel bar which has small relative height from low channel and long distance along the flow direction, SLI could not express well the actual deposition situation. The effect of the excavation of gravel bar was investigated at Honda location in the Arakawa River through SLI. The re-colonization of the grass-type vegetation can be confirmed at the location where SLI becomes higher due to the excavation. This result indicates SLI is a suitable index for evaluating the effectiveness of the excavation of the gravel bar.

  • DYNAMIC GROWTH MODEL OF RIVER VEGETATION CONSIDERING THE CHANGE OF VEGETATION SUCCESSION SPEED DUE TO DEPOSITION OF FINE SAND               
    YAGISAWA Junji; TANAKA Norio
    Journal of Japan Society of Civil Engineers, Ser. B1 (Hydraulic Engineering), Volume:70, Number:3, First page:71, Last page:81, 2014
    A dynamic model for predicting the long term change of vegetated area in river was developed when the flood does not change the morphology of the gravel bar. In this simulation model, the expansion, destruction due to floods and regeneration of the plants were considered. Change of vegetation succession speed was included in relation to the tendency of fine sand deposition due to floods. For elucidating the characteristics of deposition of fine sand due to floods, deposition situation after 2007 and 2012 flood events were investigated on the two gravel bars in the middle stream of Arakawa River.
     The simulation model was developed on a gravel bar located near Kumagaya Ohashi (KU) and applied to a gravel bar located near Arakawa Ohashi (AR) for validating the change of vegetated area from 2000 to 2012. This model expressed the situation of vegetated area in 2012 within the reasonable limit. Especially, this model can be found to describe not only the expansion location of each vegetation but also the vegetated area of each vegetation by considering change of vegetation succession due to deposition of fine sand by floods.

    Journal of Japan Society of Civil Engineers, Ser. B1 (Hydraulic Engineering), Volume:69, Number:4, First page:I_685, Last page:I_690, 2013, [Reviewed], [Lead]
    Many houses were broken and washed out by the supercritical tsunami flow overflowed from river embankment. Under the supercritical flow, drag force characteristics of dense obstacles and bed shear stress around them have not been clarified. Therefore, the objective of this study is to find out the effect of spacing of neighboring obstacles on the drag characteristics of quadratic prisms (house model) and bed shear stress distribution around them. Drag force acting on the house model and bed shear stress were measured by force gauge and shearing strain sensor, respectively. Four cases for different overflow depth and three cases for different G/bh (where, G and bh is horizontal spacing of each house model and width of a house model, respectively) were conducted. Drag force acting on the house model and bed shear stress between two house models (tm) increased with narrowing G. When G/bh=0.4, drag force and tm became 1.6 and 1.4 times comparing with single house model, respectively. However, when G/bh=1.2, drag force and shear stress became almost the same with single house case.

    Coastal forests in large areas of the Tohoku and Kanto districts of Japan were destroyed by the tsunami after the Great East Japan Earthquake on 11 March 2011. A non-linear long wave model that includes the breaking and washout condition of trees and houses estimates the capacity of a coastal forest with 590m in width to reduce the moment of fluid force behind forest and the washout region of houses by around 110m. On the other hand, even the washed out sea embankment has been found to contribute for reducing the washout region of houses by 1520m. Washed out houses applied additional drag force on downstream houses, however it also reduces the washout region by 510m because of the resistance to tsunami current even after the houses were broken and floated.

    For evaluating the possibility of forestation in gravel bed bars, Breakage or Overturning Index (BOI) and Wash-Out Index (WOI) were derived considering the difference of tree breaking phenomena due to floods, i.e. trunk breakage or overturning, and wash-out of trees, respectively in this study. Coupling the two indices, the method for classifying the river habitat into four, not breaking and not washout (Region A), breaking and not washout (Region B), not breaking and washout (Region C), and breaking and washout (Region D), is proposed. The applicability of the two indices, BOI and WOI, were validated in the middle stream reach of the Arakawa River and the down stream from the upper stream reach of the Tamagawa River. In addition, in seven locations where relative height from ordinary water level is different, the breaking modes of trees were classified in the BOI-WOI plot considering floods with different return periods. There are two patterns for the dynamics of plots with flood return period in the BOI-WOI figure. One is changed from Region A to Region D (Pattern I), and the second is changed from Region A to Region B (Pattern II). In Pattern II, trees are not washed out even though they are damaged. Then, the location has high possibility to be a stable forest. Therefore, the countermeasure for preventing the forestation should be considered to change the habitat from Pattern II to Pattern I.

    For the evaluation of habitat suitability for fish, hydraulic data that can be easily observed have been
    often used. However, it has become essential to consider fish's preference for riverbed environments
    modified by artificial sediment supply in gravel-bed rivers. In this study, two types of evaluation methods
    were applied on the target river with different riverbed environment in the two diversion channels. These
    models are conventional evaluation method based on hydraulic quantity (HSI), and it taking into account
    the sand cover on stony riverbed as a riverbed environment in addition to the hydraulic quantity (HSIb). The
    prediction accuracy was elucidated by comparing the habitat suitability index calculated from these models
    with the spatial distribution of the focal point of Ayu obtained from the field survey. The evaluation of
    habitat suitability taking into account the degree of sand coverage (HSIb) was found to be able to evaluate
    the focal point of Ayu more accurately than the conventional method (HSI).

    At Typhoon No.19 in 2019, overtopping flow from embankment occurred at many locations in the Arakawa River tributaries, and gully erosions have been confirmed. In a previous study, the relationship between the wavelength of irregularities at crest of embankment and gully erosion was examined by laboratory experiments. However, since this experiment was conducted with the overflow water depth limited, the effect of changes in overflow depth on gully erosion characteristics has not been clarified. Therefore, the objectives of this study are 1) to clarify the effect of increasing overflow depth on the gully erosion characteristics by hydraulic experiment, and 2) to confirm the similarity between gully erosion characteristics obtained by experiments and actual phenomena in the field. As a results of hydraulic experiment and field survey, it was confirmed that dimensionless erosion depth and interval of neighboring gully erosions were similar to the experimental values.

    The frequency and magnitude of the water-related disasters have been increasing all over the world. Several organizations including JSCE flood disaster investigation team generally conduct an on-site survey after severe disasters in order to clarify the damage mechanism. However, there is no solid guideline for the river flood disaster in Japan, whereas the tsunami disaster. This report provides essential information of a proposed guideline for standardization of an on-site field survey and data treatment for flood disaster. We especially focused on ways to identify inundation marks (depth or height) and to evaluate building damage and bank failure. For surveyor’s convenience and safety, the guideline includes concrete cases with many example photos and useful data sheets. The guideline also deals with a simple and fast data sharing method with Google My Map service, a tool for data combination of field data and photos developed on Excel VBA and secure data sharing method provided by JSCE.

    For clarifying the scoured characteristics around levee breaching point at the 2015 Kanto & Tohoku heavy rain, post flood survey was conducted not only for the Kinugawa River but other rivers in Ibaraki Prefecture where levee breaching was occurred, and the breaching length and the depth of the scoured region were investigated with the hydraulic parameters. Flume experiment was also conducted in a flume with 1/60 scale. The levee shape were selected as the full shape and the half-scoured levee shape. Clear water scour condition was set at the downstream of the levee. The number of scoured region for the full shape levee condition were around 5-8, and is similar to the actual situation at the breaching point of the Kinugawa River. The scoured depth for half scoured levee shape was 1.5-1.8 times larger for full-size embankment case. The breaching widths for Miyato, Nishinire, and Hachikenbori River, were relatively small, but was similar to the initial breaching width of the Kinugawa River.

    For improving river environment, artificial sand supply is recently conducted in downstream of dam reservoirs. However, there are many unknowns regarding how the sediment supply affects the bed material size and its dynamics at a flood event. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to clarify quantitatively the dynamics of artificial supplied sand in armored bed by proposing new model for calculating bed shear stress in the cobble layer. Quasi-three dimensional model has been developed considering the sheltering effect by boulders and decrease of bed shear stress. 2D model and the quasi 3D model are compared at flood events in downstream of the Futase Dam. Dynamics of sedimentation height and the deposited mean diameter were analyzed in the simulation. The quasi 3D model can express well the sedimentation at an inner side of meandering part of the river. The size of deposited material in gravel layer is more than 4cm. The model has a possibility to express the dynamics of supplied sediment motion in armored rivers.

    Advances in River Engineering, Volume:21, First page:319, Last page:324, 2015
    As one of the countermeasures for the forestation on gravel bars, excavation of gravel bars is recently conducted. To conduct effective excavation for preventing re-forestation during long term, stochastic analysis is needed considering various flow discharge condition. Therefore, objective of this study is to clarify the effect of forestation due to the excavation of the gravel bar. To fulfill the objective, the long term growth dynamic model was used for evaluating the possibility of forestation under various discharge condition. The developed model was applied to gravel bar at Honda in Arakawa River. Expected value of forestation (EV) was defined and its value was calculated in each excavation type. As a comparison of EV in each excavation type, EV value for Case 6 which gravel bar is excavated diagonally, becomes smallest. It is indicated that developed model can evaluate the suitable excavation type for preventing re-forestation on the gravel bar.

    For clarifying the possibility of forestation in gravel bed bars or islands, sediment load change index (SLI) has been proposed considering deposition and washout of fine sand during flood discharge is declined. The applicability of this index was validated in the middle stream reach of the Oppe River and the Arakawa River. Before and after typhoons in 2007, 2011 and 2012, field investigations were conducted on five gravel bars in two rivers. River flow was also analyzed by two-dimensional depth-averaged Reynolds equations, and SLI was calculated. In comparison with SLI and sand deposition situation on observed gravel bars, SLI has been found to express well the sand deposition situation on most of observed gravel bars. However, when this method is applied to the gravel bar which has small relative height from low channel or long distance along the flow direction, SLI could not express well the actual deposition situation. The effect of the excavation of gravel bar was investigated at Honda location in the Arakawa River through SLI. The re-colonization of the grass-type vegetation can be confirmed at the location where SLI becomes higher due to the excavation. This result indicates SLI is suitable parameter for evaluating the effectiveness of the excavation of the gravel bar.

    A dynamic model for predicting the long term change of vegetated area in river was developed when the flood does not change the morphology of the gravel bar. In this simulation model, the expansion, destruction due to floods and regeneration of the plants were considered. In this study, the wash-out of plants and tree trunk breakage were considered as the destruction mechanism of the river vegetation due to floods. For elucidating the characteristics of regeneration of tree type vegetation, tree regeneration situation after 1year of the 2006 and 2007 flood event was investigated in the Arakawa River. The simulation model was applied to the middle stream reach of the Arakawa River for validating the change of vegetated area from 2000 to 2012. This model expressed the situation of vegetated area in 2012 within the reasonable limit. Especially, this model can be found to describe the location of each vegetation and expansion area of woody type vegetation by considering the tree’s regeneration and expansion after the trunk bending or breaking damage by floods.

    For the management of river channel, it is very important to estimate correctly the change of river bed topography at a flood event. However, the bed variation is quite difficult to predict for the river where forestation occurs because of the change of vegetation resistance during a flood. The new method is proposed in this study to evaluate the bed variation around a forest on a gravel bar at large flood event. River bed variation analysis was conducted for the middle stream region of Arakawa River using quasi-three dimensional flow model combined with the new method that includes the washout and breaking condition of trees. Observed amount of bed variation was reproduced well by the model considering the washout and breaking condition of trees during a flood. On the other hand, the difference is small on the calculated river bed variation between the quasi-three dimensional and two-dimensional method. This result indicates that the improvement of vegetation resistance change during a flood event is important for the accurate evaluation of river bed variation at a large flood event that can washout or break trees.

    The tsunami caused by the Great Japan Earthquake on 11 March 2011, broke most of the sea embankment and coastal vegetation belt and caused catastrophic damage to people and buildings in the Tohoku and Kanto regions of Japan. Field surveys were conducted to elucidate the damage to river embankments and their hinterlands (residential area) by tsunami propagation in river channels and overtopping of embankments. Ten rivers were selected for the field investigation. In the hinterlands where overtopping occurred, the tsunami came from two directions, coast and river. It is necessary to identify locations of river embankments that can be easily overtopped by a tsunami in different tsunami conditions, river morphology and inland embankment of roads or trains. Tsunami inundation patterns were classified by the river capacity and whether a river or sea embankment was breached or not. This will provide useful information for making new hazard maps and planning new cities. Numerical simulation in Abukumagawa River shows the clear relationship between the scoured area and the tsunami overtopping time.

    For evaluating the possibility of forestation in gravel bed bars, sediment deposition index (SDI) was derived considering the characteristic of flood hydrograph. The applicability of this index was validated in the middle stream reach of the Oppe River and the down stream reach of the Tamagawa River. Before and after typhoon No.12 and 15 on 2011, field investigations were conducted on gravel bars in Tamagawa and Oppe River. For above two floods, river flow was analyzed by two-dimensional depth-averaged Reynolds equations, and SDI and WOI (Washout index proposed by Tanaka et al. (2010)) were calculated. Calculated SDI in numerical simulation and situation of sand deposition on observed gravel bars were compared. When the critical value of SDI was considered to be 0.7, SDI could express well the sand deposition situation on observed gravel bars. By using SDI-WOI plot, vegetated situation of grass type vegetation on gravel bars in Tamagawa River was classified well. Grass type vegetation has been found to grow only on where SDI is larger than 0.7 and WOI is smaller than 1.4. These results indicated SDI-WOI plot proposed in this study has some possibility to evaluate the location that grass type vegetation can grow easily.

    For elucidating the relationship between flood disturbance and biodiversity of vegetation in gravel bed bars, Breakage or Overturning Index (BOI) and Wash-Out Index (WOI) were derived considering the difference of vegetation breaking phenomena due to floods, i.e. trunk breakage or overturning, and wash-out of trees or grass, respectively. Coupling the two indices, the method for classifying the river habitat into five, not tree breaking and not washout (Region A), tree breaking and not washout (Region B), not tree breaking and washout (annual grass) (Region C), tree breaking and washout (annual grass) (Region D), and washout of all vegetation (Region E), is proposed. The condition at which WOI is larger than 0.5, and WOI is less than one, is correlated with the Shannon-Wiener index at three gravel-bed bars in the Arakawa River, Japan. Especially, when BOI is larger than one, the biodiversity is increased. For Region A and E, the trend is assumed to be affected by the duration after flood. The proposed index for Region D has possibilities to express middle class disturbance that is closely related to the biodiversity at the habitat.

    Tree pulling experiments that simulated flood action were conducted using Salix babylonica and Juglans ailanthifolia, exotic and invasive trees in Japanese rivers.. The resulting damage was examined in order to assess the effects of physical tree characteristics and root architecture on the maximum resistive bending moment (Mmax) for overturning. In situ soil shear strength tests were conducted in order to measure soil strength parameters. Significantly correlated (p<0.05) non-linear relationships were found between Mmax and tree characteristics, and H*D 2 provided the best predictor of the Mwithin them. Non-linear models were fitted between Mmax and Dbh for each species. The more efficient root architecture to withstand overturning is the heart-root system of S. babylonica, and the plate-root system of J. ailanthifolia is less efficient not with the same breast height diameter but with the same root volume. The average Mmax of S. babylonica for overturning each species decreased linearly with increasing soil cohesion within the experimental range because root anchoring depth is restricted with increasing the soil cohesion.

    Volume:44, First page:21, Last page:24, 2010
    The tsunami caused by the Great Japan Earthquake at 14:46 JST on 11 March 2011, with a magnitude of 9.0 and epicenter 129 km east of Sendai, broke most of the sea embankment and coastal vegetation belt and caused catastrophic damage to people and buildings in the Tohoku and Kanto districts of Japan. A field survey was conducted to elucidate the damage situation of residential region by tsunami propagation in river channels and its overtopping from embankment. Abukumagawa River, Nanakita River and Old Kitakamigawa River located on Miyagi prefecture were selected for field investigation. In Abukumagawa River and Old Kitakamigawa River, overtopping flow from embankment occurred mainly at the outer-bank side of meandering section. Severe erosion was occurred on levee slope and neighboring houses were washed out by the scouring due to the overtopping flow. The hinterlands of coast and river had tsunami from two directions, coast and river, and the damage situation including the evacuation action for people became complex. Therefore, it is necessary to elucidate the location where tsunami is easy to be overtopped for different tsunami conditions.

    For evaluating the difference of tree breaking phenomena due to floods, i.e. trunk breakage or overturning, and wash-out of trees, Breakage or Overturning Index(BOI)and Wash-Out Index (WOI) were derived respectively in this study. Based on these indices, the method for classifying the dynamics of forestation in rivers was proposed. This method was applied to the middle stream reach of the Arakawa River The situation of ’breaking’ or ’washing out’ on a gravel-bedbar after 2007 flood can be evaluated by using BOI and WOL In addition, in three locations where relative height from ordinary water level isdifferent, the relationships between flood return period and breaking mode of trees due to floods were demonstrated. At the location where relative height is the smallest, possibility of forestation should be low because wash-out of trees occurs by 5 to 10 years return period of floods. In contrast, possibility of forestation should be high at the location where relative heightis the biggest, because wash-out of trees doesn’t occur by 40 years return period of floods. This method is available to judge the area where artificial management of trees is required.

    Trees in rivers sometimes become driftwoods at flood events, and it might cause a disaster. It is important to understand the uprooting condition of the trees by floods. 2D unsteady depth-averaged flow model was applied to the Arakawa River between 76 km to 82 km for evaluating September 2007 flood and October 2006 flood. This model expressed well the peak water levels of the floods. Threshold drag moment and shear stresses for up-rooting the representative vegetation, Salix subfragilis and Robinia pseudoacacia, which grew on the gravel-bed bar in the upstream of the Kumagaya-Ohashi was evaluated according to the result of numerical analysis and the washed-out situation of the plants. Threshold drag moment for tree-uprooting on the gravel-bed was larger compared with the previous experimental results by pulling test. Flood discharge for which all plants on this gravel-bed bar were washed away was evaluated by comparing the calculated shear stress in each discharge condition and the threshold shear stress for uprooting obtained by the analysis.

    For elucidating tree breakage condition with different breaking pattern, i. e. trunk breakage, tree overturn, local scour and degradation of the substrate of trees, and with different tree species, field investigation on tree damage situation after two flood events (October 2006 flood and September 2007 flood) were conducted in the Arakawa River and the Tamagawa River. Plant regeneration situation after 1year of the 2006 flood event was also conducted. If the breaking pattern is bending or partial breakage, the tree, Salix subfragilis, has a high productivity for regrowth. It implies that such breaking pattern is not so important if we consider the rehabilitation of gravel-bed river environment. The threshold moment of partial overturn of Robinia pseudo-acacia that has thin root zone was smaller compared with the previous experimental results by pulling trees because of a local scour. If severe scouring was occurred, threshold overturning moment can be quite small. The threshold moment can be found to be expressed as a function of the substrate condition.

    Volume:42, First page:42, Last page:43, 2008
    This paper reports the research project in Arakawa River and Tamagawa River related to breaking condition of trees vegetated on gravel bars. Field surveys and laboratory experiments were conducted for elucidating the tree breaking condition due to the flood. The river flow analysis is also applied to the Arakawa River for evaluating the tree wash-out condition. The tree breaking and tree wash-out can be evaluated by drag moment acting on the tree trunk and the non-dimensionalized bed shear stress, respectively. The threshold drag moment and shear stress are discussed and the papers are introduced in this manuscript.

    For elucidating tree breakage condition with different tree species and tree age, field investigation on tree height hv, trunk diameter at breast height dBH, and tree projected area in vertical section, of Salix subfragilis and Robinia pseudoacacia were conducted on three gravel-bed bars in midstream of the Arakawa River. After a flood on October 2006, hv, dBH and trace water depth were investigated for trees which were broken or bent down by the flood. Loading test was conducted for deriving critical breaking moment of the tree trunk. Critical breaking moment of the two tree species were expressed by the function of dBH,3 The critical breaking moment of Robinia pseudoacacia is lower than that of Salix subfragilis when the diameter is the same. Drag and drag moment acting on trees were calculated with different tree age and magnitude of flood disturbance. Return period of floods (T2) was compared with the maximum tree age (T1) at which tree is broken under critical breaking moment. Comparing T1 with T2 has the possibility to become an effective method for evaluating whether the habitat in a river has a tendency to be a forest or not.

    he effect of flood disturbance on the morphology of runners, plant productivity and runner-expansion characteristics of Pharagmites japonica was investigated at midstream of the Arakawa River. The dynamic growth model of P. japonica was developed considering the effect of disturbance, i. e., the difference of runner morphology and shoot productivity in the parent colony. The aboveground biomass distribution along the distance from the parent colony was well represented by the model. For analyzing the effect of flood disturbance interval, maximum water levels at three flood events were calculated and evaluated whether the habitat of P. japonica were inundated or not. In addition, the threshold friction velocity of the average grain diameter was compared with the friction velocity at the flood event. Although the gravel movement possibility has a little different tendency with the damaged situation of P. japonica, the clear relationship between the flood interval and the productivity in each habitat is found. The analysis indicates the possibility to calculate the plant productivity under the effect of flood disturbance.

    Field observation was conducted to elucidate the effect of Eragrostis curvula on the threshold of gravel movement at midstream of the Arakawa River. Under various hydraulic conditions (particle diameter, bed slope and water depth) and growth conditions (colony diameter and density of the plant), Shields parameter of the gravel in the plant-vegetated area was estimated using the drag characteristics of the plant and calculated friction velocity affected by the plant. Threshold of gravel movement of median grain size (d50) and d84 (84% of the grain weight) around the plants was evaluated by comparing friction velocity of the flow condition with the critical friction velocity of the diameter. The removal threshold of Eragrostis curvula was defined at which the friction velocity affected by the plant's drag is equal to the critical friction velocity of d84. The threshold condition related to HI (H: water depth, I: bed slope) and the drag by plant was validated for a flood in the Arakawa River and for two floods in the Yoshino River.

    This study explored the effects of coastal vegetation and sand dune on tsunami protection based on field observations carried out in two periods after the Indian Ocean tsunami. First one was conducted for elucidating the relationship between the representative species and the damage, from 1 to 6 April 2005 in Sri Lanka. The second survey was conducted for investigating the breaking condition of the representative trees, from 5 to 9 January, 2006 at Kalutra, Medilla, Rekawa and Hambantota where the combination of the sand dune followed by vegetation towards landside played an important role. The breaking moment of trees were investigated for the representative trees by pulling test. The threshold value for breaking condition was derived as a function of trunk diameter. The breaking moment equation represents well in the limitation of the representative species with the tsunami height at the tsunami event considering the aerial root height. These findings have to be considered in future coastal landscape planning and tsunami hazard mapping.

    The effect of the enlargement of Phragmites japonica on the threshold of gravel movement was investigated by field observation at midstream of the Arakawa River. The lateral biomass distribution was simulated by the growth dynamic model of P. japonica including their shoot characteristics. The extended width by runner system was about 30 m, almost coincided with the width of the 3 year's plant stand in field. The effect of the plant enlargement on the threshold of gravel movement as evaluated by the lateral distribution of the drag force in relation to the plant biomass. The analysis indicated that the area lower than the threshold of gravel movement becomes exponentially large after 3-5 years with no disturbance even if the initial colonization is scattered.

    For decreasing the spray flux by wave-breaking at the shoreline to the landward area, the optimal wind protection fence structure was discussed. For minimizing the salt-spray flux through the fence, the structure with two low circular or L-shaped cylinders in staggered grid arrangement was selected and wind tunnel experiments were conducted with different spacing for cross-stream and stream-wise direction. The salt spray amount settling at the fence and passing through the fence were measured. The spray volume getting through or blowing up the fence was quantified by colored water with dye. The water was sprayed with a sprayer and collected by gauzes setting at downstream points. For the subsidence volume at the bottom in downstream, a tray was put and the mass of the subsiding water was measured. Considering the loss by blowing upward of the fence, the appropriate arrangement was found as `the two rows of circular cylinders with staggered, 1D cross-stream spacing and 1D-2D stream-wise length, where D is the diameter of a circular cylinder’. This amount of the subsidence is about 90% and more than the value of previous-existed fence structure, 70%.

    Field experiment was conducted for elucidating the damage effect on the productivity of wetland species, Phragmites australis, and upland species, Miscanthus sacchariflorus, in a river-floodplain. River flow was analyzed by two-dimensional depth-averaged Reynolds equation to solve the moment acting on the stems. Regrowth dynamic model considering their stem-breaking was formulated and their growth was analyzed in relation to flood discharge, flood interval and their stem-breaking moment. If their stem breaking is occurred every year, survival of the two species is difficult. However, they can survive with 2-5 years' interval and the superiority of M. sacchariflorus is decreased with stem-breaking condition. However, the breaking moment of M. sacchariflorus was larger than that of P. australis and the decrement in belowground biomass was smaller under bending damage. This indicates that the weak flood does not change their competitive superiority.

  • BELOWGROUND DYNAMICS AND STRATEGIES OF EMERGENT MACROPHYTES, Typha angustifolia AND Zizania latifolia, AFTER CUTTING THEIR AERIAL SHOOTS

    Typha angustifolia were cut in June, July and August in 2002, and in May and July in 2003 for i nvestigating their strategy to survive from cutting at different timing. Zizania latifolia was also cut in July in 2003. The cutting effects were evaluated quantitatively by regrowth characteristics of aboveground leaves just after cutting. The belowground production of T. angustifolia was decreased by summer cutting. This was due to the decrement of transportation from original shoot to belowground and from regrowth shoot to belowground organ. July to August is the best season for controlling expansion of the species, because the transportation can be decreased by the cutting. The amount of transportation from belowground to aboveground organ was a little compared with the decrement of belowground biomass and was almost the same with the two species, but heterotrophic season just after cutting were found 15 days, 40days in case of T. angustifolia and Z. latifolia, respectively. The season was longer and secondary shoot was formed in case of Z. latifolia. This implies the different strategy of Z. latifolia with T. angustifolia.
