Catchment drainage network scaling laws found experimentally in overland flow morphologies

David Andrew Barry, Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Perona, Mohsen Cheraghi

The scaling relation between the drainage area and stream length (Hack’s law), along with exceedance probabilities of drainage area, discharge and upstream flow network length are well known for channelized fluvial regions. We report here on a laboratory e ...

Transport of suspended sediments under the influence of bank macro-roughness

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Carmelo Juez Jiménez

River restoration works often include measures to promote morphological diversity and enhance habitat suitability. One of these measures is the creation of macro-roughness elements, such as lateral cavities and embayments, in the banks of channelized river ...

Using SAS functions and high-resolution isotope data to unravel travel time distributions in headwater catchments

Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Benettin, Gianluca Botter

We use high-resolution tracer data from an experimental site to test theoretical approaches that integrate catchment-scale flow and transport processes in a unified framework centered on selective age sampling by streamflow and evapotranspiration fluxes. T ...

Experimental characterization of vegetation uprooting by flow

Paolo Perona, Benoît Crouzy, Katharina Maria Edmaier

We investigate vegetation uprooting by flow for Avena sativa seedlings with stem-to-sediment size ratio close to unity and vanishing obstacle-induced scouring. By inducing parallel riverbed erosion within an experimental flume, we measure the time-to-uproo ...
