Controls on Erosion and Cyclic Step-Formation Upstream of Waterfalls. [PDF]
Geophys Res LettAbstract Waterfall retreat transmits base‐level perturbations upstream, thereby providing markers of changing climate and tectonics. In homogeneous rock, waterfalls often retreat either by direct waterfall‐face erosion or incision from repeating (‘cyclic’) steps formed above waterfalls.

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 332-349, February 2023., 2023 Different shaped catastrophic palaeoflood hydrographs result in different giant flood bar morphologies and stratification styles. Distinctive morphologies and stratigraphic motifs are associated with, and discriminate, surge wave floods from protracted recessions and prolonged discharges.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 127, Issue 6, June 2022., 2022 Abstract Debris flows are among the most dangerous phenomena in mountain environment. Recently the use of seismic and infrasonic recordings has proven to be a powerful tool for studying and monitoring debris flows. However, open questions remain about how signal characteristics refllect flow parameters and fluid dynamic processes.

Little River Experimental Watershed, a keystone in understanding of coastal plain watersheds
Hydrological Processes, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2021., 2021 Long‐term (52 years) of streamflow data are currently available for nine flow measurement sites in the US EPA Level III Southeastern Plains ecoregion. Hydrologic comparisons across several regional watersheds indicated few differences. Differences found for a smaller nested watershed indicate significant changes in crop and forest coverage can alter ...

Performance Assessment of Shockwaves of Chute Spillways in Large Dams
Shock and Vibration, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 Spillways are the most important structures of large dams that are responsible for releasing the excessive flood discharge from the reservoir. Although many studies have been performed to determine the flow characteristics over these structures, however, the available information on the shockwaves’ characteristics for spillways’ design is limited.

Geofluids, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 The high rock slope situated in the Southwest stope of Taiping Mining, Inner Mongolia, is subject to dumping failure due to its instability. The dumping body rock layer of this stope shows obvious bending and lowering of the head. The overturning angle of the rock strata can reach 46°, and tension dislocation along the rock joint can be observed in ...

Supercritical Flow at an Abrupt Drop: Flow Patterns and Aeration [PDF]
, 1998 Stepped waterways and cascades are common features of storm waterways, at dam outlets and in water treatment plants. At an abrupt drop, open channel flows are characterised by the presence of shock waves and a substantial flow aeration.

The Depositional Record, Volume 6, Issue 1, Page 203-216, February 2020., 2020 An increasing number of studies uses simplified modelling of turbidity currents to reconstruct historic and ancient sediment fluxes to the deep sea. The commonly used Rouse model is validated here with experimental data. The results indicate that the Rouse model is accurate for the distribution and throughput of sand along the channel thalweg, but ...
