Deposition and erosion behaviour of cohesive sediments in the upper River Taw observatory, southwest UK: Implications for management and modelling

M. Stone et al.

Summary: The study focused on the transport characteristics of fine sediment in the upper River Taw in southwest England, providing parameters necessary for modeling fine sediment transport. The experimental data were used to calibrate and test a mathematical model (FLUME model) for cohesive sediments, which showed good agreement between measured and modeled data. The study emphasized the importance of understanding transport parameters for assessing sediment control options and pollution abatement strategies at a catchment scale.

A New Framework for Modelling Fine Sediment Transport in Rivers Includes Flocculation to Inform Reservoir Management in Wildfire Impacted Watersheds

Micheal Stone et al.

Summary: This study developed a framework to simulate fine sediment transport, including consideration of bed shear stress and flocculation processes, which can support decision-making for water resources management and catchment planning.
