Joint Workshop on Abutment Scour: Present Knowledge and Future Needs--June 2008. Research Results Digest 334
The United States Geological Survey (USGS) defines scour as the hole left behind when sediment (sand and rock) is washed away from the bottom of a river. Although scour may occur at any time, scour action is especially strong during floods. Swiftly flowing water has more energy than calm water to lift and carry sediment down river.
