Large Wood Retention in Forested River Corridors During Overbank Flood Events: Insights From Flume Experiments

Water Resources Research
Understanding large wood (LW) dynamics on floodplains is important for closing wood budgets and predicting hazards associated with LW. We conducted 38 experiments in a fixed‐bed flume to examine how forest stand density (FSD), wood transport regime, and ...
