Bed-load transport modelling by coupling an empirical routing scheme and a hydrological-1-D-hydrodynamic model – case study application for a large alpine valley

Sediment transport in mountain rivers and torrents is a substantial process within the assessment of flood related hazard potential and vulnerability in alpine catchments. Focusing on fluvial transport processes, river bed erosion and deposition considerably affects the extent of inundation. The pre...
