The effects of sediment loading on morphology and flood risk in a lowland river system

The effects of sediment loading on morphology and flood risk in a lowland river system

Diffuse sources of sediment may have important implications for flood risk management (FRM), especially as catchment sediment yields are predicted to increase in future. UK legislation requires FRM to work with natural processes wherever possible, including accounting for sediments. However, the imp...
