Shallow flows over a permeable medium: the hydrodynamics of submerged aquatic canopies

Aquatic flow over a submerged vegetation canopy is a ubiquitous example of flow adjacent to a permeable medium. Aquatic canopy flows, however, have two important distinguishing features. Firstly, submerged vegetation typically grows in shallow regions. Consequently, the roughness sublayer, the regio...
