Natural levees are wedge-shaped morphological features developing along the boundaries
of mass flows. When they form in fluvial landscapes, they can have multiple implications for …

The structure of free-surface flows in a straight compound channel was investigated in a
laboratory flume, consisting of a central smooth-bed main channel (MC) and two adjacent …

Turbulent mixing layers associated with streamwise uniform and nonuniform flows in
compound channels (main channel with adjacent floodplains) are experimentally …

Emergent vegetation in an open channel is a significant factor in flow resistance and has
greater influence on flow characteristics. This paper aims to compare the significance of …

In recent decades, the study of steady flow in the compound channel has received much
attention, while the flow characteristics of flood in the compound channel are rarely reported …

Fluvial morphology in compound river channels usually undergoes drastic variation during
extreme floods due to scour and erosion processes. Those processes can be highly …

The reported experimental study assesses the effects of flow non-uniformity on the
momentum flux in straight compound channels. Two flumes were used, featuring vertical …

Flooding water in extreme hydrometeorological events may be significantly contracted by
bridge abutments and superstructures, leading to severe sediment scour and threatening …

Transverse hyporheic transport and biogeochemical reactions in a compound channel
remain poorly understood. As floodplains are submerged, solutes in the surface water enter …

Previous studies of transverse hyporheic exchange in compound rivers mainly focused on
processes driven by riverbed morphology, and neglected the effects of regional groundwater …
