Experimental observations on sorting patterns of heterogeneous sediment mixtures in low constrained flows

Field and laboratory investigations indicate that gravel bed rivers with bimodal grain size distribution and low lateral confinement, such as in the case of braided or multi-channel rivers, can present simultaneously active channel variations, both in the planimetric and altimetric directions, toget...
