Inlet optimization of river oxbow system Haslau-Regelsbrunn
Abstract
The oxbow system Haslau-Regelsbrunn is to be reconnected to the Danube in the course of a restoration project. It is important to ensure that the connection is as sustainable as possible. The aim is to achieve a state of equilibrium with constant dotation at low flows, which will neither lead to heavy sedimentation nor to strong erosion of the oxbows. Innovative methods (3D hydrodynamic-numerical modeling, sediment transport modeling) will be used to (i) predict the success of planned measures and (ii) describe the effects of the changes on the oxbow and the Danube over the first period after the implementation. The project will address the following research questions: 1. Does the flow splitting in the inflow area work? 2. Will the inflow area remain unaffected or will it be subject to sedimentation? 3. What are the effects on the main rivercourse in this area?
