Title Observations of Armor Formation in a Sediment-Recirculating Flume
Creator DeTemple, B. T. Wilcock, Peter
Description The transported load in many fluvial systems consists of a significant component of fine- grained sediment. In these systems river morphology is largely determined by deposition of fine sediment on the bed and banks. Existing models for suspended sediment transport focus primarily on sand-covered beds, leavingincompletethetheoreticalandempiricalframeworkforpredictingmorphologicchangeincoarse-bedded systems. We conducted laboratory experiments of suspended sand transport over coarse immobile...
