Enhancing the spatially distributed total bed material load prediction using correction factor grid for plane bedded mountain river / Amir Nazaruddin

The sediment transport in river is a dynamic phenomenon which usually estimated based on reach average concept using Total Bed Material Load (TBML) equation. However, due to high heterogeneity of particle size and different morphologies in mountain river channel sediment transport in mountain river...
