Steep streams on rough beds are generally characterised by supercritical flow conditions under which antidunes can develop and migrate over time. In this paper, we present flume experiments that we conducted to investigate the variability of antidune geome ...
In mountain regions, steep streams play an important role in water and sediment connectivity. In these highly dynamic systems, water flow features, sediment fluxes and stream morphologies are tightly interlinked over a broad range of temporal and spatial s ...
A turbidity current is a particle-laden current driven by density differences due to suspended sediment particles. Turbidity currents can transport large amounts of sediment down slopes over great distances, and play a significant role in fluvial, lake and ...
Sediment transport is one of the main morphodynamic processes in mountain streams. Understanding bedload transport is fundamental to prevent and mitigate hydrogeological hazards and for the resources management. The classic bedload discharge predictions ar ...
Bedload transport is one of the main mechanisms for sediment transport in rivers. Bedload transport may exhibit anomalous dispersion behavior during the formation of clusters on the surface of a heterogeneous river bed, which cannot be quantified by the cl ...
The proper understanding of gravel-bed river dynamics is a crucial issue for the effective protection against related natural hazards, design of hydraulic structures, and preservation of their high ecological value in mountain regions. However, despite mor ...
Field observations in a wide range of environments have shown that sediment availability is a major control on the suspended sediment observations in streams. Here we examine, via laboratory experiments, how the amount of proximal in-channel fine sediment ...
Sediment traps are crucial elements for flood protection in mountain rivers with high sediment transport capacity. Existing structures often interrupt the channel connectivity. Ideally, a sediment trap should be permeable for bed load during non-hazardous ...
This paper outlines the various approaches used to calculate bedload transport. As bedload transport exhibits considerable spatial and temporalvariations, computing the bedload transport rates and morphological changes experienced by streambeds is difficul ...
Describing bedload transport as a stochastic process is an idea that emerged in the 1930s with the pioneering work of Einstein. For a long time, the stochastic approach attracted marginal attention, but the situation has radically changed over the last dec ...
