Abstract

We show that recent measurements in the East Fork River, Wyoming, of annual gravel wave translation, annual bedload transport, and annual variations in riverbed cross‐sectional area can be described to within a factor of 2 by using the Gradowczyk characteristic velocity for bed waves to describe gravel wave translation, the Engelund‐Hansen formula for bedload transport, and a DuBoys‐like formula for changes in cross‐sectional area. No free parameters are needed.
