Resistance to flow determines several important hydraulic parameters in streams and rivers
and must be properly represented in models for estimating water discharge and sediment …

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 …

A data set of 2890 field measurements was used to test the ability of several conventional
flow resistance equations to predict mean flow velocity in gravel bed rivers when used with …

Several decades of flume and field measurements have indicated that in rough turbulent
flows the critical Shields stress increases with increasing slope and associated decreasing …

This paper investigates the potential of fast flood discharge measurements conducted with a
mobile LSPIV device. LSPIV discharge measurements were performed during two …

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 …

The ability of simple equations to predict bed load transport with limited knowledge of the
bed surface material was investigated. This was done using a data set consisting of 7,636 …

Steep mountain streams typically feature macro‐roughness elements like boulders, step‐
pool sequences, and a varying channel width. Flow resistance because of such roughness …

A simple and robust method is proposed for calculating reach-averaged bed-load transport
in sand-and gravel-bed rivers with no calibration. The data required are the bed surface D …

Bedload transport is known to be a highly fluctuating temporal phenomenon, even under
constant (mean) flow conditions, as a consequence of stochasticity, bedform migration, grain …
