The Intrusion of Fine Sediments into a Stable Gravel Bed
A rectangular flume was used to study variables affecting the intrusion of fine sands into a stable gravel streambed. The amount of intrusion by sand (median particle diameter 0.5 mm) was determined under varied conditions of discharge, depth, velocity, flume slope, and rates of sediment transport. During all experimental tests, sand particles were trapped in voids within …
