Sediment transport and dispersal in the nearshore of “flash-flood” rivers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
River sediment dispersal on the near-shore of “flash-flood” rivers is investigated using a coupled wave-current-sediment transport model. Besòs and Llobregat rivers (short and mountainous rivers in NW Mediterranean Sea, near to Barcelona City) are used ...
