Bedload transport and hydro-abrasive erosion at steep bedrock rivers and hydraulic structures

Sediment transport in glacier basins and rivers, and hence reservoir sedimentation tend to increase under the impact of climate change. The raise of bedload transport rates results in an increase of hydro-abrasive erosion leading to bedrock incision in rivers and wear at hydraulic structures. Mechan...
