This paper reviews sediment transport and channel morphology in small, forested streams in
the Pacific Northwest region of North America to assess current knowledge of channel …

A landscape's sediment grain size distribution is the product of, and an important influence
on, earth surface processes and landscape evolution. Grains can be large enough that the …

The stream power incision model (SPIM) is a cornerstone of quantitative geomorphology. It
states that river incision rate is the product of drainage area and channel slope raised to the …

Data compiled from eight decades of incipient motion studies were used to calculate
dimensionless critical shear stress values of the median grain size,. Calculated. values were …

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 …

Purely braided, meandering and straight channels can be considered as end-members of a
continuum of alluvial channel patterns. Several researchers have succeeded in separating …

First published in 1995, the award-winning Civil Engineering Handbook soon became
known as the field's definitive reference. To retain its standing as a complete, authoritative …

Suspended sediment load was analyzed in a small, high-gradient stream of the Eastern
Italian Alps which was instrumented to measure discharge and sediment transport. The ratio …

In order to simulate a fine-material slurry of a debris flow, a clay suspension of various
concentrations was recirculated in a steep flume. The effect of an increasing fluid density …
