A laboratory experiment on the evolution of a sand gravel reach under a lack of sediment supply

A flume experiment was conducted to examine the evolution of a sand-gravel reach under a lack of sediment supply. A bed composed of a bimodal sediment mixture was installed with a uniform slope and an gradual fining pattern. At the upstream end of the flume the initial bed consisted of 100% gravel, which decreased stepwise (10% steps) in...
