Note the definition of the internal master bedding in the former and the transparency of the latter profile. The two profiles had similar orientations but were recorded on different graphic printers; the horizontal and vertical scales are almost identical; noise in the water column has been ...
Additional support was derived from the STC program of the National Science Foundation via the National Center for Earth-surface Dynamics under agreement number EAR-0120914, as well as from The Edward Silberman Fellowship (first author). This paper represents a contribution of the research of the ...

The wash load is the fine material of sizes, which are not found in appre‐ ciable quantities on the bed, and is not considered to be dependent on the local hydraulics of the flow, but instead is dependent on the upstream supply. As a practical definition, the wash load is considered ...
In the case of a coarse-material bed, the influence of suspended load is negligible, whereas the bed load is predominant. Further, suspended sediment load is the fine material that moves through the channel in the water column. These materials are kept in suspension by the upward flux of ...
4.1A new definition for plane beds Data from the literature including field observations and flume experiments for plane beds were used to create phase diagrams for plane beds (Figs.3,4,5). Traditionally, the particle diameters or the critical values of sediment motion or Froude number were used...
