Title Closing a Sediment Budget for a Reconfigured Reach of the Provo River, Utah
Creator Erwin, S. O. Schmidt, John C. Wheaton, Joseph Michael Wilcock, Peter
Description We quantified all components of a fluvial sediment budget for a discrete flood on an aggrading gravel bed river. Bed load transport rates were measured at the upstream and downstream ends of a 4 km study area on the Provo River, Utah, during a dam-controlled flood. We also collected high-resolution measurements of channel topography before and after the controlled flood for the entire reach. Topographic uncertainty in the digital elevation models (DEM) was characterized using a spatially...
