Abstract
We investigate the transient response of gravity currents moving through a relatively sparse array of roughness elements. The work builds on earlier studies which assumed that the currents were in a quasi-steady state. We find that the current decelerates and that the density structure changes from the head and tail structure of a smooth bed gravity current to a wedge shape.
