Reliable full-scale prediction of drag due to rough wall-bounded turbulent fluid flow remains
a challenge. Currently, the uncertainty is at least 10%, with consequences, for example, on …

This review describes mean and turbulent flow and mass transport in the presence of
aquatic vegetation. Within emergent canopies, the turbulent length scales are set by the …

Marsh vegetation, a definitive component of delta ecosystems, has a strong effect on
sediment retention and land-building, controlling both how much sediment can be delivered …

This paper highlights some recent trends in vegetation hydrodynamics, focusing on
conditions within channels and spanning spatial scales from individual blades, to canopies …

Seagrass meadows are vital ecosystems in coastal zones worldwide, but are also under
global threat. One of the major hurdles restricting the success of seagrass conservation and …

Plant posture can play a key role in the health of aquatic vegetation, by setting drag,
controlling light availability, and mediating the exchange of nutrients and oxygen. We study …

Previous studies have considered vegetative drag at different scales, the blade scale, the
patch scale, and the reach scale, but few studies have considered the connection between …

The paper promotes an emerging research area at the interfaces between aquatic ecology,
biomechanics and environmental fluid mechanics. This new area, Hydrodynamics of Aquatic …

The interplay between erosion and deposition are fundamental characteristics of river
basins. These processes result in the delivery, retention and conveyance of sediment …

Laboratory measurements reveal the flow structure within and above a model seagrass
meadow (dynamically similar to Zostera marina) forced by progressive waves. Despite being …
