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 …
The paper describes the process of induction of equations for the description of vegetation- induced roughness from several angles. Firstly, it describes two approaches for obtaining …

Data from laboratory flumes and natural streams show that the critical Shields stress for initial sediment motion increases with channel slope, which indicates that particles of the …

Alternative general forms are considered for equations to predict mean velocity over the full range of relative submergence experienced in gravel‐and boulder‐bed streams. A partial …
This paper reviews recent work on flow and transport in channels with submerged vegetation, including discussions of turbulence structure, mean velocity profiles, and …
Vegetation on the banks and flooding areas of watercourses significantly affects energy losses. To take the latter into account, computational models make use of resistance …
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 …
The shear layer at the top of a submerged canopy generates coherent vortices that control exchange between the canopy and the overflowing water. Unlike free shear layers, the …
Steep, rough channels occupy a large fraction of the total channel length in mountainous regions. Most sediment mobilized on hillslopes must pass through these streams before …
