Changes in bedload transport rate associated with episodic sediment supply in a Japanese headwater channel

Abstract: 2We conducted field monitoring of bedload transport rate associated with experimental sediment 3 release in a natural channel to clarify behavior of the supplied sediment on mixed size bed. 4Observation of bedload rate at two sites along the 30 m channel reach revealed that downstream 5 migration of finer particles delay compared with coarser particles. Ratio of the bedload sediment that 6 deposited during the migration was higher for finer sediments. These behaviors of the mixed size 7 particles were clear du… Show more

“…We assumed that the bed load sediment consisted of particles larger than sand ([1 mm in diameter), because particles smaller than 1 mm are likely to be carried in suspension during rough and turbulent flow conditions in steep channels (Gomi and Sidle 2003). The bed load transport rate of the HelleySmith samplers was calculated from the dry weight of the sampled sediment by dividing by the duration of the sampling event (30 s on average) (Imaizumi et al 2009). Bed load transport values were multiplied by the ratio between the channel cross-sectional width (which changed over time) and the width of the sampler (7.8 cm) to estimate the amount of bed load across the entire channel width.…”
