Interactions between coarse sediment transfer, channel change, river engineering and flood risk in an upland gravel-bed river

Coarse sediment transfer in upland gravel-bed river systems is often neglected in the design and operation of river management schemes. Yet, it is increasingly attributed to problems within upland environments including bank erosion and enhanced flood risk. Developing a sufficient understanding of c...
