Biological Effects of Fine Sediment in the Lotic Environment

TL;DR: A holistic approach to the problems associated with finesediment is outlined to aid in the identification of sediment sources, transport, and deposition processes in the river catchment, and the multiple causes and deleterious impacts associated with fine sediments on riverinehabitats, primary producers, macroinvertebrates, and fisheries are identified.

A simple raster-based model for flood inundation simulation

TL;DR: In this article, a model for simulating flood inundation is presented, which is designed to operate with high-resolution raster Digital Elevation Models, which are becoming increasingly available for many lowland floodplain rivers and is based on what is hypothesise to be the simplest possible process representation capable of simulating dynamic flooding.

Guide for selecting manning's roughness coefficients for natural channels and flood plains

TL;DR: In this paper, a procedure for the determination of Manning's roughness coefficient (n) for channels and flood plains analyzes the different roughness factors that affect the roughness coefficients.
