Experimental Study and Numerical Simulation of Vegetated Alluvial Channels
Vegetation in rivers increases flow resistance and bank stability, reduces bed resistance and flow conveyance, improves water quality, promotes habitat diversity, and alters both mean and turbulent flow. By reducing bed resistance and altering turbulent characteristics, vegetation can change the dis...
