Abstract
Outlines the fundamental principles of the measurement and analysis of turbulent flow and sediment transport. It reviews laboratory work over the last three decades on near-boundary flow structure, as well as providing more recent research dealing with the high frequency monitoring and modelling of sediment transport. The research sections address aspects of turbulence characteristics and sediment behaviour in fluvial, tidal, and aeolian boundary layers. The effects of roughness transitions are extensively discussed and some of the most popular instrumentation is reviewed. This book brings together contributions from twenty researchers worldwide providing both review material and some of the latest research into small-scale interactions of turbulence and sediment transport in geophysical boundary layers.
