A stem spacing-based non-dimensional model for predicting longitudinal dispersion in low-density emergent vegetation

Abstract: Predicting how pollutants disperse in vegetation is necessary to protect natural watercourses. This can be done using the one-dimensional advection dispersion equation, which requires estimates of longitudinal dispersion coefficients in vegetation. Dye tracing was used to obtain longitudinal dispersion coefficients in emergent artificial vegetation of different densities and stem diameters. Based on these results, a simple non-dimensional model, depending on velocity and stem spacing, was developed to predict … Show more

“…Sonnenwald et al. (2019a) suggested non‐dimensionalizing by cylinder spacing instead of cylinder diameter as the characteristic mixing length. Figure 10 shows that D x / Us and D y / Us both collapse reasonably well onto a single line, again removing any evidence of cylinder diameter non‐uniformity effects.…”
