Desert river channel deposition characteristics and their implications for lateral infusion of aeolian sand in the Ulan Buh desert reaches of the Yellow River
The river flowing across the desert are controlled by the aeolian–fluvial interaction, with frequently scouring and depositing, which threaten the...

The impact of large dams on sediment deposition and channel adjustment: a case study at the Huanghuacheng Reach in the Three Gorges Reservoir, China
Since the Three Gorges Reservoir began impoundment in 2003, drastic changes have been occurring in the Huanghuacheng (HHC) Reach, which is about...

Sediment Entrainment and Deposition
Many debris flows have significant amounts of entrainment, resulting in a substantially larger final volume than their initial volume and more... -
Flow structure, bed morphology and contaminated sediment transport at the confluences of pipe and channel
The confluence between a pipe and an open channel is a common pattern. This study analyses the flow characteristics of pipe and channel confluences...
