The role of tributary relative timing and sequencing in controlling large floods (2014)
Journal Article
Pattison, I., Lane, S., Hardy, R., & Reaney, S. (2014). The role of tributary relative timing and sequencing in controlling large floods. Water Resources Research, 50(7), 5444-5458. https://doi.org/10.1002/2013wr014067

Hydrograph convolution is a product of tributary inputs from across the watershed. The time-space distribution of precipitation, the biophysical processes that control the conversion of precipitation to runoff and channel flow conveyance processes, a...

Scales and causes of heterogeneity in bars in a large multi-channel river: Río Paraná, Argentina (2014)
Journal Article
Reesink, A., Ashworth, P., Smabrook Smith, G., Best, J., Parsons, D., Amsler, M., …Szupiany, R. (2014). Scales and causes of heterogeneity in bars in a large multi-channel river: Río Paraná, Argentina. Sedimentology, 61(4), 1055-1085. https://doi.org/10.1111/sed.12092

To date, published studies of alluvial bar architecture in large rivers have been restricted mostly to case studies of individual bars and single locations. Relatively little is known about how the depositional processes and sedimentary architecture...

Application of a roughness-length representation to parameterize energy loss in 3-D numerical simulations of large rivers. (2012)
Journal Article
Sandbach, S., Lane, S., Hardy, R., Amsler, M., Ashworth, P., Best, J., …Szupiany, R. (2012). Application of a roughness-length representation to parameterize energy loss in 3-D numerical simulations of large rivers. Water Resources Research, 48(12), Article W12501. https://doi.org/10.1029/2011wr011284

[1] Recent technological advances in remote sensing have enabled investigation of the morphodynamics and hydrodynamics of large rivers. However, measuring topography and flow in these very large rivers is time consuming and thus often constrains the...

Quantifying the dynamics of flow within a permeable bed using time-resolved endoscopic particle imaging velocimetry (EPIV) (2012)
Journal Article
Blois, G., Sambrook Smith, G., Best, J., Hardy, R., & Lead, J. (2012). Quantifying the dynamics of flow within a permeable bed using time-resolved endoscopic particle imaging velocimetry (EPIV). Experiments in Fluids, 53(1), 51-76. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00348-011-1198-8

This paper presents results of an experimental study investigating the mean and temporal evolution of flow within the pore space of a packed bed overlain by a free-surface flow. Data were collected by an endoscopic PIV (EPIV) technique. EPIV allows t...
