Coupling fluvial-hydraulic models to study the effects of vegetation on sediment transport and flow dynamics in the South Platte River, Colorado
<p> This study investigated the effects of riparian vegetation on sediment transport rates and flow dynamics in the South Platte River just downstream of Fort Lupton, Colorado. FaSTMECH, a two-dimensional coupled fluvial and hydraulic model, was used to compute flow characteristics (velocity a...
