Workshop on Modelling Mixed-Sediment River Morphodynamics – Delft, Netherlands, 27 – 29 May 2015

List of Topics:

• Sediment supply to the river system (through surface run-off, landslides, bank erosion, tributaries, bed degradation, …)
• Bedrock incision and mixed-sediment processes
• Downstream fining, river profile concavity, and gravel-sand transitions
• Particle abrasion
• Granular physics and sorting
• Bend sorting, mobile and static armor, bedform sorting, and their relation to river morphodynamics
• Grainsize-selective and partial transport, hiding, and equal mobility
• Advances in measurement techniques of mixed-sediment processes (lab & field)
• Advances in mathematical modelling of mixed-sediment morphodynamics
• Ecological implications of sorting
• Sorting in channel-floodplain complexes
• River measures dealing with mixed-sediment issues (e.g. sediment augmentation and dredging)
