Observations of the effect of emergent vegetation on sediment resuspension under unidirectional currents and waves

We present results from a series of laboratory experiments on a wave and current flume, where synchronous velocity and concentration measurements were acquired within arrays of rigid cylinders, representative of emergent vegetation and benthic communities, under different flow conditions. The densit...
