Abstract: Time-averaged velocity fields in uniform open-channel flows over rough beds may exhibit spatial heterogeneities due to the effects of bed roughness and secondary currents (SCs). The latter typically originate from the turbulence anisotropy and spatial… 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.
