| Abstract | ||
| In light of the Nile River's importance to Egypt, this study was started to explore the river's flow and sediment in an analytical manner. The goal of this research is to look into the morphological changes in the Nile River. The Nile River is subjected to erosion and sedimentation at various points due to its natural geomorphology. Within the fourth stretch, it was focused on two regions. Upstream and downstream of the El-Menia bridge were the first. Upstream and downstream of the BaniSuefbridge were the second. Along the research region, 70 cross-sections from 1982 were compared to 2002. In addition, the same cross-sections from 2002 and 2004 were compared along the same area. During these times, the deposition and scour were calculated. In the first location, erosion happened more frequently than deposition, according to the comparison. In the second area, on the other hand, the comparison revealed that deposition was more common than erosion. | ||
