A coupled sediment routing and lateral migration model for gravel-bed rivers (2011)
Journal Article
Raven, E., Ferguson, R., & Lane, S. (2011). A coupled sediment routing and lateral migration model for gravel-bed rivers. Hydrological Processes, 25(12), 1887-1898. https://doi.org/10.1002/hyp.7945

We describe additions made to a multi-size sediment routing model enabling it to simulate width adjustment simultaneously alongside bed aggradation/incision and fining/coarsening. The model is intended for use in single thread gravel-bed rivers over... Read More about A coupled sediment routing and lateral migration model for gravel-bed rivers.

Implications of climate change in the twenty-first century for simulated magnitude and frequency of bed-material transport in tributaries of the Saint-Lawrence River (2011)
Journal Article
Verhaar, P., Biron, P., Ferguson, R., & Hoey, T. (2011). Implications of climate change in the twenty-first century for simulated magnitude and frequency of bed-material transport in tributaries of the Saint-Lawrence River. Hydrological Processes, 25(10), 1558-1573. https://doi.org/10.1002/hyp.7918

More frequent extreme flood events are likely to occur in many areas in the twenty-first century due to climate change. The impacts of these changes on sediment transport are examined at the event scale using a 1D morphodynamic model (SEDROUT4-M) for...

Evolution of an advancing gravel front: observations from Vedder Canal, British Columbia (2011)
Journal Article
Ferguson, R., Bloomer, D., & Church, M. (2011). Evolution of an advancing gravel front: observations from Vedder Canal, British Columbia. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 36(9), 1172-1182. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.2142

Channelization of the lowermost part of Vedder River in 1922 initiated a natural experiment relevant to the unresolved question of how abrupt gravel–sand transitions develop along rivers. The new channel (Vedder Canal) had a fine bed and a much lower... Read More about Evolution of an advancing gravel front: observations from Vedder Canal, British Columbia.
