Abstract: AbstractA key feature of a schematized open-channel confluence is the separation zone that is present when the tributary flow detaches from the downstream corner of the confluence. This zone of rec... read more here.

Abstract: Channel confluence is a common feature in river systems. The flow dynamics associated with channel confluence are highly three-dimensional with strong flow circulations and secondary currents and can result in enhanced river mixing downstream. In… read more here.
