Sediment transport dynamics in the lower Mississippi River : non-uniform flow and its effects on river-channel morphology

This dissertation examines the dynamics of sediment transport and channel morphology in the lower Mississippi River. The area of research includes the portion of the river where reach-averaged downstream flow velocity responds to the boundary condition imposed by the relatively uniform water-surface...
