A Turbulence-Based Bed-Load Transport Model for Bare and Vegetated Channels

Previous studies have shown that sediment transport models based on bed shear stress (τ) are not accurate for regions with vegetation. The present study demonstrated that the inaccuracy arises from the influence of vegetation‐generated turbulence. Bed‐load transport rate, Q[subscript s], and near‐be...
