Dynamic transport capacity in gravel-bed river systems
Sediment transport capacity mediates the transfer and storage of bed material between alluvial reservoirs in a drainage system. At intermediate time scales (100-102 yr) corresponding to the evolution of sediment pulses, conditions governing bed-material transport capacity under the hydrologic regime respond to variations in storage and sediment flux as pulses extend, overlap, and attenuate thro...
متن کاملDo gravel bed river size distributions record channel network structure?
[1] Bed load sediment particles supplied to channels by hillslopes are reduced in size by abrasion during downstream transport. The branching structure of the channel network creates a distribution of downstream travel distances to a given reach of river and thus may strongly influence the grain size distribution of the long-term bed load flux through that reach. Here we investigate this hypoth...
متن کاملEdge Effects Are Important in Supporting Beetle Biodiversity in a Gravel-Bed River Floodplain
Understanding complex, dynamic, and diverse ecosystems is essential for developing sound management and conservation strategies. Gravel-bed river floodplains are composed of an interlinked mosaic of aquatic and terrestrial habitats hosting a diverse, specialized, and endangered fauna. Therefore, they serve as excellent models to investigate the biodiversity of multiple ecotones and related edge...
متن کاملEvaluating fine sediment mobilization and storage in a gravel-bed river using controlled reservoir releases
Two controlled flow events were generated by releasing water from a reservoir into the Olewiger Bach, located near Trier, Germany. This controlled release of near bank-full flows allowed an investigation of the fine sediment (<63 μm) mobilized from channel storage. Both a winter (November) and a summer (June) release event were generated, each having very different antecedent flow conditions. T...
متن کاملThe complexity of gravel bed river topography examined with gradual wavelet reconstruction
This study analyzes the nonlinear nature of gravel bed elevation data series obtained in a large scale flume facility for four different discharges, including spatial transect series and temporal series at a fixed location. The goals are to infer the degree of complexity, to assess the scales and features in the signals that mostly contribute to this complexity, and to discern the difference in...
