, the watercourse of the river IJssel was dredged several times, but the costs were relatively high and within a few years, the river silted up again. As the IJssel had several delta-like mouths here, the main route of the river shifted several times. In the 19th century, a new strategy was put in place to counter this problem: some watercourses were dammed to allow for more water at a higher speed through one or two main routes. This had the advantage that less sand and silt were deposited and

The Patawalonga serves as an outlet for the Keswick and Brownhill creeks and the Sturt River (also known as Sturt Creek), the latter being a former natural creek comprising for a significant part of its length now as a large concrete storm-drain. The catchment includes the Cowandilla-Mile End drainage network, the construction of which has replaced numerous small natural watercourses

The river Bostonnais flows in a south-westerly direction to throw in Saint-Maurice River at north of the urban area of La Tuque. This river whose surface is usually frozen from November to April, flows mainly in forest land, except for the last kilometers before its mouth. It runs through a village, or La Bostonnais, and then

Dora Creek


Dora River is a watercourse that is located in the Upper Central Coast/Lower Hunter regions of New South Wales, Australia. Dora Creek River rises below Watagan Mountains west of Martinsville, and flows generally southeast by south, joined by two minor tributaries, before reaching its river mouth within Lake Macquarie, near the town of Dora Creek. The river descends over its course. The merged flows of Dora Creek together with Lake Macquarie reaches the Tasman Sea of the South Pacific Ocean at Swansea. The F3 Freeway crosses the creek,

River Continuum Concept


to be more predictable as to the biological properties of the water. The concept was first developed in 1980 by Robin L. Vannote, with fellow researchers at the Stroud Water Research Center. The River Continuum Concept is based on the idea that a watercourse is an open ecosystem that is in constant interaction with the bank, and moving from source to mouth, constantly changing. Basis for this change in the overall system is due to the gradual change of physical environmental conditions such as the width, depth, water, flow characteristics,

the English Channel at Shoreham-by-Sea. The mouth of the Adur is now two miles (3 km) from the town centre of Shoreham due to longshore drift. The Baybridge Canal uses part of the Adur's watercourse. The name "Adur" is a relatively recent (probably 1612s) invention, based on the name of the Roman fort Portus Adurni which was mistakenly believed to be at Shoreham. The river had previously been known as the "Bramber", and was also recorded as the "Sore"

It receives waters from Blanche River in Saint-Casimir before emptying into the Sainte-Anne River, just above the village.

sediment, which has increased over time due to felling and burning of forest and woodland vegetation and the introduction of grazing, creating soil erosion in the river system. Diahot has been monitored during a 43-year period between 1955 and 2008. The mouth is very influenced by tide so discharge is measured at Bondé Sainte Anne. At this place the basin area is 248 km². Average discharge at this place is 4 m³.s. Because of daily flows variability and strong influence of flood events on average values, this quantity is very representative of

of beaver from 1915–1917 on High Prairie Creek at the mouth of the Klamath River near Requa, California. Within a matter of years, the plentiful beavers in the Klamath Basin had been mostly wiped out. Beaver dams had previously been an important factor in stream habitat in the Klamath River watershed, helping to moderate the power of floods and creating extensive wetlands. The loss of the beaver dams resulted in detrimental consequences for watercourses in the basin, exacerbating the power of winter floods, and causing severe erosion. Trapping parties eventually moved

Sainte-Anne River


The Sainte-Anne River is a tributary of the Saint Lawrence River in the province of Quebec, Canada. It is well known for ice fishing, with the primary catch being Tomcod, (poulamon in French), during the winter at Ste-Anne-de-la-Pérade. A small village builds up from the end of December to mid-February. It is also regionally known for flooding, especially in St-Raymond, and sometimes in St-Casimir. The river has its source in the Reserve

It is culverted for its upper course, visible in St Anne's Park for its entire lower course, and causes flooding somewhere along its line most years. The river flows entirely within the jurisdiction of Dublin City Council. The origins of the name, also spelt sometimes as Nannikin or Naneken, are unclear, though it is been speculated that it might be a

Ordinary watercourse


An ordinary watercourse is one of the two types of watercourse in statutory language in England and Wales. Ordinary watercourses include every river, stream, ditch, drain, cut, dyke, sluice, sewer (other than a public sewer) and passage through which water flows and which does not form part of a main river. An internal drainage board where relevant, or lead local authority has permissive powers to carry out flood defence works for ordinary watercourses at their discretion.

The toponym "Mégiscane River" was formalized on December 5, 1968, at the Commission de toponymie du Québec. During the 1940s and 1950s, the Shawinigan Water and Power Company, which held the water power concession of the Saint-Maurice River, conducted several studies to evaluate the potential diversion of rivers to its rivers

Peter Pond had contributed to the mapping of Canada by drawing the general outline of the river basin that Mackenzie recorded in 1789. The maps that Peter Pond subsequently drew, based on his explorations and on the information provided to him by First Nations peoples, ultimately gained international recognition for Pond at the end of the 18th century. In 1790, Pond sold his shares in the North West

The Petite Rivière de Jacmel is a watercourse running in Haiti through the Sud-Est department and the arrondissement of Jacmel. The Petite Rivière de Jacmel takes its source in the foothills of the mountain range called "Chaîne de la Selle", and set in Hispaniola's Tiburon Peninsula. Over approximately 10 kilometers long, the river then runs Eastwards, to meet South with the Caribbean Sea at the level of its mouth in the bay of the port-city of Jacmel. Along its path in the mountain, the river turns

Lieutenant Governor. During much of the 19th century and especially after the American Civil War, the Mississippi River cut through many of its former oxbows and shortened its channel considerably. In 1881, during a flood, the moving water of the Mississippi "discovered" a much smaller, parallel riverbed, the mouth of the Kaskaskia. Kaskaskia's bed was a few feet lower than the Mississippi's bed, so the whole river shifted to the new watercourse, cutting across the head of a former oxbow to do so. For the

Main rivers () are a statutory type of watercourse in England and Wales, usually larger streams and rivers, but also include some smaller watercourses. A main river is defined as a watercourse marked as such on a main river map, and can include any structure or appliance for controlling or regulating the flow of water in, into or out of a main river. The Environment Agency's powers to carry out flood defence works apply to main rivers only. In England main rivers are designated by Defra. The Welsh Government performs

Increased runoff from farmlands resulted in extensive erosion, which led to the creation of a stream channel that ran northwestwards into the Santa Ana River channel and thence the Upper Newport Bay. As siltation problems plagued the bay, the Bitter Point Dam was constructed to divert the Santa Ana River to its present mouth at Huntington Beach, leaving the Cienega/San Diego Creek as the main watercourse flowing into the bay. To support irrigation, farmers drilled numerous wells to tap the region's abundant
