Rivers — Soft Engineering Schemes set up to work with the natural processes along the river to reduce the effects of flooding. Flood warnings and preparation …
Flood management case study — Boscastle. Cornwall In August 2004. the village of Boscastle saw a month’s worth of rain fall in two hours. The drainage basin of Boscastle is steep and impermeable. . .
Soft engineering does not involve building artificial structures. but takes a more sustainable and natural approach to managing the potential for river flooding. Each approach has its advantages. . .
Pevensey Bay: a case study of soft engineering Longshore drift was limited by 150 obsolete groynes. These were removed and not replaced. to save project costs and turn the scheme into purely soft engineering. In the past. shingle for beach nourishment was brought to the beaches by lorry. along narrow roads through residential areas.
Soft Engineering Case Study: Wallasea Island By the British Geographer Situation Wallasea Island is on the south side of the Crouch Estuary in Essex and also linked to the Roach Estuary. These estuaries feed into the North Sea. Figure 1 In the past. the area was protected by a sea wall. and the land behind the wall was drained by Dutch engineers and used for farming. However. due to lack of . . .
SOFT Engineering in the River Quaggy. The River Quaggy runs through southeast London and since the 1960’s it has been heavily managed by building artifical channels and culverts to divert the flow beneath the surface as it passed through Greenwich. The areas of Lewisham and Greenwich have become more densely populated and the flood risk has increased. due to the …
Coastal engineering case study: Mappleton. United Kingdom. Mappleton is a village on the Holderness coast. north-east United Kingdom. In 1991. coastal engineering strategies were put in place to protect the village from coastal erosion. The Holderness coastline is one of the most rapidly eroding areas of the UK. The cliffs have been eroding at . . .
