Earth‐surface mass flows such as debris flows, rock avalanches, and dam‐break floods can
grow greatly in size and destructive potential by entraining bed material they encounter …

This paper outlines the various approaches used to calculate bedload transport. As bedload
transport exhibits considerable spatial and temporal variations, computing the bedload …

In the last few decades cooperation among fluid dynamicists and geomorphologists has
allowed the construction of a rational framework for the quantitative understanding of several …

The geometry of alluvial river channels both controls and adjusts to the flow of water and
sediment within them. This feedback between flow and form modulates flood risk, and the …

We provide a probabilistic definition of the bed load sediment flux. In treating particle
positions and motions as stochastic quantities, a flux form of the Master equation (a general …

By the late nineteenth century, the scientific study of bedload transport had emerged as an
offshoot of hydraulics and geomorphology. Since then, computing bedload transport rates …

We investigate the entrainment, deposition and motion of coarse spherical particles within a
turbulent shallow water stream down a steep slope. This is an idealization of bed-load …

Several decades of flume and field measurements have indicated that in rough turbulent
flows the critical Shields stress increases with increasing slope and associated decreasing …

Recent studies have observed deviation from normal (Fickian) diffusion in sediment tracer
dispersion that violates the assumption of statistical convergence to a Gaussian. Nikora et …

A linear stability theory for dune and antidune formation is presented that implements a
rotational two-dimensional flow model. As in previous linear theories, the phase-lag …
