[PDF][PDF] A geological framework for interpreting downstream effects of dams on rivers
Because dams influence the two primary factors—water and sediment—that determine the
shape, size, and overall morphology of a river, they represent fundamental interventions in …

Partial transport of a sand/gravel sediment
Grains of a single size within a mixed‐size bed are entrained over a range of flows. Within
this range some grains exposed on the bed surface are active (entrained at least once over …

Toward a practical method for estimating sediment‐transport rates in gravel‐bed rivers
PR Wilcock - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2001 - Wiley Online Library
Estimates of sediment transport rates in gravel‐bed rivers are typically developed from
formulae or from a sampling campaign. The former are notoriously inaccurate; the latter …
