    • Coupling between downstream variations of channel width and local pool–riffle bed topography 

      Chartrand, Shawn M.; Jellinek, A. Mark; Hassan, Marwan A.; Ferrer Boix, Carles (2023-01-04)
      Article
      Open Access
      A potential control of downstream channel width variations on the structure and planform of pool–riffle sequence local bed topography is a key to the dynamics of gravel bed rivers. How established pool–riffle sequences ...
    • Experiments on the sediment transport along pool-riffle unit 

      Hassan, Marwan A.; Chartrand, Shawn M.; Radic, Valentina; Ferrer Boix, Carles; Buckrell, Emma; McDowell, Conor (2022-09)
      Article
      Open Access
      This study examines channel dynamics and mixed-load bed load transport through a riffle and pool sequence forced by downstream channel width variations within an experimental flume. The experiment consisted of four runs ...
    • Morphodynamics of a width-variable gravel bed stream: new insights on pool-riffle formation from physical experiments 

      Chartrand, Shawn M.; Jellinek, A. Mark; Hassan, Marwan A.; Ferrer Boix, Carles (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2018-11)
      Article
      Open Access
      Field observations, experiments, and numerical simulations suggest that pool-riffles along gravel bed mountain streams develop due to downstream variations of channel width. Where channels narrow, pools are observed, and ...
    • Sediment transport and channel morphology implications for fish habitat 

      Hassan, Marwan A.; Ferrer Boix, Carles; Cienciala, Piotr; Chartrand, Shawn M. (CRC Press, 2017)
