Title Multi-Scale Statistical Characterization of Migrating Dunes in Sand-Bed Rivers
Creator Singh, A. Lanzoni, S. Wilcock, Peter Foufoula-Georgiou, E.
Description Migrating bed forms strongly influence hydraulics, transport, and habitat in river environments. Their dynamics are exceedingly complex, making it difficult to predict their geometry and their interaction with sediment transport. Acoustic instrumentation now permits high-resolution observations of bed elevation as well as flow velocity. We present a space-time characterization of bed elevation series in laboratory experiments of sand and gravel transport in a large 84 m long, 2.75 m wide...
