Fine sediment represents an important part of the solid flux of rivers. Due to the size of these
particles, they are often transported as suspended load. They gradually fill the pores of the …

There is a paradox in the relationship between bedload transport rates and flow variables:
laboratory and field studies have reported on how bedload transport rates depend on flow …

Sediment pulses are triggered through a variety of mechanisms, from landslides to land use
change. How do these pulses move through the fluvial system, and how do they evolve? In a …

Abstract Since the 2008 Wenchuan (Ms. 8.0) Earthquake, the foreland rivers of the Longmen
Mountains have suffered from significant bed degradation, among which the Shi‐ting River …

Predicted bedload fluxes often have large errors partly because calculations usually do not
include spatial and temporal flow variability. Sediment motion is driven by a temporal …

Sediment supply to gravel bed river channels often takes the form of episodic sediment
pulses, and there is considerable interest in introducing sediment pulses in stream …

Gravel augmentation is a river restoration technique applied to channels downstream of
dams where size‐selective transport and lack of gravel resupply have created armored …

Invertebrates are important sediment engineers, making up for their small body size with
abundance and behavioral diversity. However, despite the recognized importance of …

River bed sediments typically fine downstream, where fining of median grain sizes are often
described as exponential, except where fine gravel abruptly transitions to sand. Across the …

Gold mining along 525 km of the Fraser River between 1858 and 1909 added an estimated
1.1× 108 t of tailings, half gravel and the rest finer, to the river's natural sediment load. We …
