Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, the result of extensive fieldwork and analysis, provides a comprehensive study of the physics and hydraulics of the Mississippi River, focusing on the problem of over flooding and the best way to protect the region from it. The book is unique in its detailed examination of all aspects of the problem, including the geology of the riverbed, the hydrology of the basin, the sediment transport, and the behavior of the river during floods. The authors present new theories for the origin and growth of the Mississippi and the formation of its mouth and bars. The book is based on extensive fieldwork and analysis and provides an in-depth examination of all the factors that shape the river and its behavior. A key finding of the book is that the river's bed is not made up of river deposit, but rather of a hard, tenacious, insoluble blue clay. This finding has important implications for the design of flood protection measures. The book also provides a new analysis of the sediment transport in the river, showing that the water is undercharged with sediment. This finding has implications for the design of outlets to reduce flooding. The book's insights on the Mississippi River and flood protection are significant and will be of interest to anyone concerned with the management of large rivers and the protection of human populations from flooding.
