Sediment supply controls equilibrium channel geometry in gravel rivers
AM Pfeiffer, NJ Finnegan… - Proceedings of the …, 2017 - National Acad Sciences
In many gravel-bedded rivers, floods that fill the channel banks create just enough shear
stress to move the median-sized gravel particles on the bed surface (D 50). Because this …
