Investigating the impact of moving sand during summer spates on the spatial distribution of stream periphyton biomass in a gravel-cobble bed boreal river
The abrasive effects on periphyton biomass of saltating sand, that was transported over a stable gravel-cobble riverbed during summer flow events (spates), was studied on 35 riffles of an oligo-mesotrophic river in Quebec. A periphyton saltation abrasion model (PSAM) was developed from an e...
