Abstract
The phenomena of translatory wave travel in natural channels have been studied for many years without entirely satisfactory results. Published studies have been largely theoretical, supplemented by laboratory tests in some instances, but with few observed data on waves in natural channels. Stream flow regulation by storage reservoirs in the Tennessee River Basin during the past few years has developed numerous translatory waves of various magnitudes. Under such conditions, waves can be selected for study which travel considerable distances without being appreciably affected by tributary inflows.
