Journal ArticleDOI

Hyperscale terrain modelling of braided rivers: fusing mobile terrestrial laser scanning and optical bathymetric mapping

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a novel survey methodology that combines mobile terrestrial laser scanning and non-metric aerial photography with data reduction and surface modelling techniques to render DEMs from the resulting very high resolution datasets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydraulic validation of two-dimensional simulations of braided river flow with spatially continuous aDcp data

TL;DR: In this article, high-resolution topographic survey and hydraulic monitoring at a density commensurate with model discretization can be used to advance hydrodynamic simulations in braided rivers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linking the spatial distribution of bed load transport to morphological change during high‐flow events in a shallow braided river

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide novel observations linking the connections between spatially distributed bed load transport pathways, hydraulic patterns, and morphological change in a shallow, gravel bed braided river.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of a numerical model to reproduce event‐scale erosion and deposition distributions in a braided river

TL;DR: In this paper, a depth-averaged non-uniform sediment model (Delft3D) was used to predict the morphodynamics of a 2.5 km long reach of the braided Rees River, New Zealand, during a single high-flow event.
Journal ArticleDOI

Numerical Modelling of Braided River Morphodynamics: Review and Future Challenges

TL;DR: A taxonomy of braided river morphodynamic models is presented in this paper, with a case study of monitoring and modelling, conducted in the Rees River, New Zealand, and compared to high-resolution, multi-temporal morphological data for assessing 2D physics-based morphodynamic model predictions.
