DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Mississippi River 9-ft channel project purpose is for obtaining and maintaining a 9- by 300-ft channel for navigation from the confluence of the Missouri River to the confluence of the Ohio River. An extensive terrestrial and aquatic inventory is required to establish a data base sufficient for biological analysis, and assessment of physical changes resulting from contraction efforts to obtain and maintain a 9-ft channel. A geomorphic model is required to determine the hydraulic response of the river to construction and extension of dikes. This study plan, organized and compiled by the U.S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station, outlines procedures and techniques for an overall environmental inventory of the Mississippi River floodplain between St. Louis, Missouri, and Cairo, Illinois, and provides the framework for the assessment of data and analyses of relationships of the physical, biological, chemical, and cultural elements of the project area. (Modified author abstract).

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLarge river systems are valuable national resources that provide numerous benefits to travel, shipping, recreation, and fish and wildlife. However, efforts to expand one of the uses frequently come in direct conflict with one or more of the othersThis guide attempts to bring together all scientific data that are available on techniques that have been or can be used to offset or reduce the impacts of development and maintenance of Upper Mississippi River System or other large river systems. Decision makers are thus provided an objective descriptin of options now at their disposal when they attempt to weigh the merits of defects associated with a particular action.
