A laboratory study on sediment resuspension within arrays of rigid cylinders

Tinoco RO and Coco G (2016)
Advances in Water Resources 92 (Supplement C):1–9

Highlights
  • Dense arrays of rigid cylinders enhance sediment resuspension.
  • Resuspension thresholds can be characterized by a modified Shields parameter.
  • Physical and biological effects must be considered in resuspension studies.
