Suspended load transport in a small tropical catchment: data analysis and modeling

Abstract: <p>Fine particles represent an important fraction of the mass of sediment transported by rivers (Syvitski et Saito, 2007). Suspended load is therefore a significant contributor to the erosion of landscapes. Fine particles are often considered to travel through streams and rivers with minimal interaction. Yet, recent field campaigns demonstrate that fine particles interact with the bed through erosion and deposition (Misset et al., 2019). Based on this observation, we develop a simplified model of… Show more
