| Summary: | River modeling plays a vital role in predicting river respond to any natural and artificial
modifications. This study on river modeling was carried out in order to analyse the hidraulic and
hidrological characteristic as well as sediment trends of Telom River in Cameron Highlands. In this
study, the hidrographic survey was carried out on 28 October 2008 while data on water and sediment
sampings was done twice, namely on 28 October 2008 and 8 February 2009, respectively. To model
the river, the XPSWMM, a 1-D hydrodynamic sofware was used to simulate the river discharge.
Calibration and validation were also carried out to confirm the model developed. The hidraulic
simulation, as modeled by XPSWMM show bankfull discharge was recorded in node 7 and link 17
which the estimated values were 1.02 m3/s and 2.40 m3/s, respectively. Besides, sediment analyse was
also carried out to evaluate sediment trends of the study area. The result found that sediment estimate
entered to Telom River was high about 172,324.56 kg / km²/ year and the types of sediment that
entered Telom River are mainly coarsif and grit |
