This paper outlines the various approaches used to calculate bedload transport. As bedload
transport exhibits considerable spatial and temporal variations, computing the bedload …

The geometry of alluvial river channels both controls and adjusts to the flow of water and
sediment within them. This feedback between flow and form modulates flood risk, and the …

By the late nineteenth century, the scientific study of bedload transport had emerged as an
offshoot of hydraulics and geomorphology. Since then, computing bedload transport rates …

Sediment traps with open check dams are widely used structures in flood hazard mitigation.
This paper reviews the literature dedicated to their design. First, the general context in which …

Sediment transport (bedload and suspension) plays a relevant role in the morphological
response of river channels to large floods. Sediment load controls erosion and aggradation …

This paper concerns a model of bed load transport, which describes the advection and
dispersion of coarse particles carried by a turbulent water stream. The challenge is to …

Modularity as a system of separate and independent sub-tasks is the appropriate way to
improve the performance of artificial neural network (ANN) models in hydrological …

Bedload and river morphology interact in a strong feedback manner. Bedload conditions the
development of river morphology along different space and time scales; however, by …

Check dams are transversal structures built across morphologically-active streams in
mountainous regions. These structures have been used widely in torrent-hazard mitigation …

Abstract The Saint‐Sauveur dam was built in 1992 in the middle section of the Buëch River.
Downstream of the dam, a channel incision by several meters was observed. A gravel …
