| Title | Physical Basis for Quasi-Universal Relations Describing Bankfull Hydraulic Geometry of Single-Thread Gravel Bed Rivers |
| Creator | Parker, G. P. Wilcock, Peter paola, C. Dietrich, W. E. pitlick, J. C. |
| Description | We examine relations for hydraulic geometry of alluvial, single-thread gravel bed rivers with definable bankfull geometries. Four baseline data sets determine relations for bankfull geometry, i.e., bankfull depth, bankfull width, and down-channel slope as functions of bankfull discharge and bed surface median sediment size. These relations show a considerable degree of universality. This universality applies not only within the four sets used to determine the forms but also to three... |
