Interactions Between Flow and Fan Topography Investigate by solving Exner + Shallow Water Eq Over Different Tops. Flat Long Tran. Combo Some JT Questions: How Does topography influence the flow over fans? Is there fan geometry that crates a bypassing condition ?
Transport exchange between a stream and its gravel bed is greatly enhanced by surface waves and/or bed forms. Through Solution of a transient advection-dispersion can be shown that the laterally averaged concentration penetration CAN Be described by a 1-D Dispersion Equation 2-D Advection Dispersion y Can be used to answer questions What restoration devices can be in place to create conditions to increase (dissolved oxygen for fish eggs) or decrease (organic carbon) exchange with the bed. A Depth dependent dispersion can Be obtained from problem par. Hence an easy to use meaningful management tool Further work compare with Clark Stream-Lab exp.
