Evidence of secondary bedform controls on river dune migration

JY Zomer, AJF Hoitink - Geophysical Research Letters, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
In rivers worldwide, multiple scales of dunes coexist. It is unknown how the larger, primary
dunes interact with secondary bedforms that are superimposed. We test the hypothesis that …

Reconstructing sediment transport by migrating bedforms in the physical and spectral domains

J Lee, A Singh, M Guala - Water Resources Research, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Characteristics of migrating bedforms are often used to indirectly quantify the volumetric
