Bedload and river hydraulics - Inferences from the East Fork River, Wyoming
Luna Bergere Leopold, William W. Emmett
1997, Professional Paper 1583
During 1973-79, bedload data were collected in a sophisticated trap on a river of moderate size, the East Fork. The transport rate was measured most days through a full snowmelt season, and the rate was determined separately for eight zones across the channel width. The quantitative data are unique and...
