Rough surfaces are ubiquitous in nature. Near-surface processes both encounter and create
surface roughness. Recent advances in surveying have improved the resolution, extent and …

Resistance to flow determines several important hydraulic parameters in streams and rivers
and must be properly represented in models for estimating water discharge and sediment …

This book outlines a generic set of procedures, termed the River Styles Framework, which
provides a set of tools for interpreting river character, behavior, condition, and recovery …

David Knighton's best-selling book looks at the wide range of forms developed by natural
rivers and the processes responsible for that development. The book combines empirical …

Rivers are significant geomorphological agents, they show an amazing diversity of form and
behaviour and transfer water and sediment from the land surface to the oceans. This book …

In the twenty‐first century, fluvial geomorphologists are ideally placed to use their science in
an applied manner, and provide guidance on environmental issues of concern …

Up to 80% of the plastics in the oceans are believed to have been transferred from river
networks. Microplastic contamination of river sediments has been found to be pervasive at …

River Channel Management is the first book to deal comprehensively with recent revolutions
in river channel management. It explores the multi-disciplinary nature of river channel …

There is no standard flow resistance equation for the determination of mean flow velocity in
mountain streams. The reason lies in the morphology of mountain streams, ie steep slopes …

Data are compiled on bed load transport and discharge in gravel bed rivers and torrents with
bed slopes up to 0.17. The transport characteristics of 19 streams are compared with simple …
