To investigate the pore pressure effects on the stability of a streambank, a series of transducers have been installed in a bank of the Sieve river, Tuscany. Four piezo-tensiometers are set inside the upper layer at increasing depths from the top of the bank; pore pressure is measured continously, during low stage periods and during floods.Rainfall, discharge and water height data are also collected.

Abstract

To investigate the pore pressure effects on the stability of a streambank, a series of transducers have been installed in a bank of the Sieve river, Tuscany. Four piezo-tensiometers are set inside the upper layer at increasing depths from the top of the bank; pore pressure is measured continously, during low stage periods and during floods.Rainfall, discharge and water height data are also collected.
