Ylla Arbos, C. (author), Blom, A. (author), Viparelli, E. (author), Reneerkens, M. (author), Frings, R. M. (author), Schielen, R.M.J. (author)While most of the world's large rivers are heavily engineered, channel response to engineering measures on decadal to century and several 100 km scales is scarcely documented. We investigate the response of the Lower Rhine River (Germany-Netherlands) to engineering measures, in terms of channel slope and bed surface grain size. Field data...journal article 2021

Blom, A. (author), Chavarrias Borras, V. (author), Ferguson, Robert I. (author), Viparelli, Enrica (author)Downstream fining of bed sediment in alluvial rivers is usually gradual, but often an abrupt decrease in characteristic grain size occurs from about 10 to 1 mm, i.e., a gravel-sand transition (GST) or gravel front. Here we present an analytical model of GST migration that explicitly accounts for gravel and sand transport and deposition in the...journal article 2017

Blom, A. (author), Viparelli, Enrica (author), Chavarrias Borras, V. (author)There has been quite some debate on the relative importance of particle abrasion and grain size selective transport regarding the river profile form and the associated grain size trends in a graded alluvial stream. Here we present new theoretical equations for the graded alluvial river profile that account for the effects of particle abrasion...journal article 2016
