🦫 Beaver Dam Ecosystem Engineering: Pond Hydrology and Flooding — 2D Cross-Section

2D cross-section of a beaver dam: weir flow, Manning channel flow, storage curve, hydrostatic load, flood attenuation, groundwater mound and habitat gains.

⚙ Under the hood

Longitudinal profile, valley cross-section and plan view of a beaver dam: weir spill Q = C L H^1.5, Darcy seepage, a storage-volume curve, Manning channel flow and downstream flood routing, with beavers whose building responds to the sound of running water, groundwater rise and habitat gains.
