High Resolution Measurements of the Mean Three-dimensional Flow Field in a Natural River

High Resolution Measurements of the Mean Three-dimensional Flow Field in a Natural River

The flow velocity in a river is three-dimensional (3D), turbulent, and varies in time and space. Capturing this variability in field measurements to support studies of river processes has proven particularly challenging. While originally developed to measure discharge, boat-mounted acoustic Doppler...
