Hydraulic routing of extreme floods in a large ungauged river and the estimation of associated uncertainties: a case study of the Damodar River, India (2013)
Journal Article
Sanyal, J., Carbonneau, P., & Densmore, A. (2013). Hydraulic routing of extreme floods in a large ungauged river and the estimation of associated uncertainties: a case study of the Damodar River, India. Natural Hazards, 66(2), 1153-1177. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11069-012-0540-7

Many developing countries are very vulnerable to flood risk since they are located in climatic zones characterised by extreme precipitation events, such as cyclones and heavy monsoon rainfall. Adequate flood mitigation requires a routing mechanism th...

Topographic structure from motion: a new development in photogrammetric measurement (2013)
Journal Article
Fonstad, M., Dietrich, J., Courville, B., Jensen, J., & Carbonneau, P. (2013). Topographic structure from motion: a new development in photogrammetric measurement. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 38(4), 421-430. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.3366

The production of topographic datasets is of increasing interest and application throughout the geomorphic sciences, and river science is no exception. Consequently, a wide range of topographic measurement methods have evolved. Despite the range of a...

Coherent flow structures in a depth-limited flow over a gravel surface : the role of near-bed turbulance and influence of Reynolds number (2009)
Journal Article
Hardy, R., Best, J., Lane, S., & Carbonneau, P. (2009). Coherent flow structures in a depth-limited flow over a gravel surface : the role of near-bed turbulance and influence of Reynolds number. Journal of Geophysical Research, 114, Article F01003. https://doi.org/10.1029/2007jf000970

In gravel bed rivers, the microtopography of the bed exerts a significant effect on the generation of turbulent flow structures. Although field and laboratory measurements have indicated that flows over gravel beds contain coherent macroturbulent flo...

Feature based image processing methods applied to bathymetric measurements from airborne remote sensing in fluvial environments (2006)
Journal Article
Carbonneau, P., Lane, S., & Bergeron, N. (2006). Feature based image processing methods applied to bathymetric measurements from airborne remote sensing in fluvial environments. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 31(11), 1413-1423. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.1341

Bathymetric maps produced from remotely sensed imagery are increasingly common. However, when this method is applied to fluvial environments, changing scenes and illumination variations severely hinder the application of well established empirical ca...
