Flow resistance equations for gravel-and boulder-bed streams (2007)
Journal Article
Ferguson, R. (2007). Flow resistance equations for gravel-and boulder-bed streams. Water Resources Research, 43(5), Article W05427. https://doi.org/10.1029/2006wr005422

Alternative general forms are considered for equations to predict mean velocity over the full range of relative submergence experienced in gravel- and boulder-bed streams. A partial unification is suggested for some previous semiempirical models and... Read More about Flow resistance equations for gravel-and boulder-bed streams.

Emergence of coherent flow structures over a gravel surface: A numerical experiment (2007)
Journal Article
Hardy, R., Lane, S., Ferguson, R., & Parsons, D. (2007). Emergence of coherent flow structures over a gravel surface: A numerical experiment. Water Resources Research, 43(3), Article W03422. https://doi.org/10.1029/2006wr004936

Gravel bed rivers have complex, porous, and irregular surfaces, characterized by a range of morphological forms. These topographical structures determine the flow structures that develop over the river bed, primarily by the shedding of vortices in th...
