| الوصف: | The study is concerned with determination of the trend of water discharge, suspended sediment concentration and sediment load in the most downstream profile of the Velika Morava River in the period 1967-2007. The gradual trend test (Mann–Kendall test – MK test) and abrupt change test (Pettitt test) have been employed on annual, seasonal and monthly water discharge, suspended sediment concentration and suspended sediment load for the given time series. Both the Mann–Kendall and Pettitt tests indicate that water discharge showed no significant annual trend or abrupt shift. However, annual suspended sediment concentration and sediment load showed significant decreasing trends (α=0.001). The average decrease of suspended sediment load transport amounted to 3.15 t/km2/yr. The Pettitt test results showed that the change-point year was detected in 1982. The average specific sediment load amounted to 134.6 t/km2/yr before the transition year, and 36.5 t/km2/yr after the transition year, i.e., it was reduced by 73 %. In the intra-annual distribution, the MK test results indicate that the most pronounced decreasing trend (α=0.001) of the sediment load is during summer and winter. Strong seasonal and monthly variability in sediment load was found. Sediment was strongly transported during spring months, in the period of frequent flood events. Almost 50% of the annual sediment is transported during March, April and May. Analysis of the discharge and suspended sediment concentration relationship revealed the existence of hysteresis loop in the shape of figure eight. The results of this study confirm the complex and heterogeneous nature of sediment response in the Velika Morava River. |
