Estimation of the volume of a fine sediment deposit over a gravel bar during a flushing event
Estimation du volume de dépôt de sédiments fins sur un banc de galets suite à une chasse de barrages
Résumé
Estimating the fine sediment budget in alpine rivers is an important challenge to better understand the morphodynamics of such rivers. This paper presents some first in-situ experiments describing the evolution of a fine sediment deposit over a gravel bar during a flushing event. Some modelling and discussion of the fine sediment dynamics are also provided.
