Hydraulic Geometry and Fish Habitat in Semi-Alluvial Bedrock Controlled Rivers

Hydraulic Geometry and Fish Habitat in Semi-Alluvial Bedrock Controlled Rivers

The cross-sectional form of semi-alluvial bedrock channels was investigated. Channel geometry data were collected from a variety of streams in Ontario and Québec, Canada to develop empirical downstream scaling relationships. The relationships revealed that bedrock, mixed, and alluvial channels scale...
