The fluid dynamics of river dunes: A review and some future research directions
J Best - Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Dunes are present in nearly all fluvial channels and are vital in predicting flow resistance,
sediment transport, and deposition within many rivers. Progress in understanding the fluid …
