Variability of Darcian Flux in the Hyporheic Zone at a Natural Channel Bend

Variability of Darcian Flux in the Hyporheic Zone at a Natural Channel Bend

Channel bends are one of the most important characteristic features of natural streams. These bends often create the conditions for a hyporheic zone, which has been recognized as a critical component of stream ecosystems. The streambed vertical hydraulic conductivity (Kv), vertical hydraulic gradien...
