About this document

Paper 38 by atikahasfiwork is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document discusses research on how large woody debris (LWD) affects the partitioning of flow stress in streams. The researchers used measurements from a spring-dominated stream called the Cultus River to study this. They found that even though LWD covered less than 2% of the streambed, it provided roughly half of the total flow resistance. As more LWD is added to a stream, the total shear stress increases due to higher water depth, but the shear stress on the streambed decreases as more stress is borne
