Computation of shear 𝜏 = 𝛾𝑤 ∙ 𝐷𝐻 ∙ 𝑆𝑤
where,
τ = shear (Pa)
γw = density of water (kg/m3)
DH = depth of water (m)
Sw = channel slope (m/m)

Computation of critical shear 𝜏𝑐 = Θ𝑐(𝑆𝑔 − 1) ∙ 𝛾𝑤 ∙ 𝑑50
where,
τc = critical shear (Pa)
γw = density of water (kg/m3)
Sg = specific gravity of soil, 2.65
d50 = median particle diameter (m)
θc = critical Shield’s parameter, 0.047
ES was defined as:
𝐸𝑆 = ( 𝜏 − 𝜏𝑐) for all τ>τc

Impacts on Aquatic Life Changes in hydrology affect aquatic live in two ways
Changes in the wet-dry cycle interrupting species life cycles
Increased variability affecting habitat

Conclusions Development prior to regulations had negative
impacts on flooding, erosion and aquatic life potential.
Detention designed for large design rainfall events will not address the increased frequency of higher flow rates.
Flood detention alone will not address issues of erosion and aquatic life (and my be detrimental).
Austin regulations since CWO implementation have been beneficial with respect to flooding, erosion and aquatic life potential.
