ICOLD Bulletin 147 discusses the upstream and downstream fluvial morphological impacts of reservoir sedimentation and possible mitigation measures. The current state of and possible future sediment deposition in reservoirs have been investigated globally with the aid of the ICOLD Register on Dams. The global mean reservoir sedimentation rate was found to be 0.8 % of the original storage capacity per year. The book also investigates the impacts of dams on the ecology related to fluvial morphological changes, and guidelines are proposed to mitigate the impacts on the downstream river morphology. Finally an economical model is presented which considers a life cycle approach for reservoir conservation.

Ce CIGB Bulletin 147 traite des impacts morphologiques fluviaux en amont et en aval de la sedimentation des reservoirs et des mesures d'attenuation possibles. L'etat actuel et l'avenir possible du depot de sediments dans les reservoirs ont ete etudies a l'echelle mondiale a l'aide du registre des barrages de la CIGB. Le taux moyen mondial de sedimentation des reservoirs s'est avere etre de 0,8 % de la capacite de stockage initiale par an. Le livre etudie egalement les impacts des barrages sur l'ecologie lies aux changements morphologiques fluviaux, et des directives sont proposees pour attenuer les impacts sur la morphologie des rivieres en aval. Enfin, un modele economique est presente qui prend en compte une approche de cycle de vie pour la conservation des reservoirs.
