The flume is 15m long, 1m wide, and 50cm deep and is designed to study sediment dynamics. The flume has an adjustable slope (-0.5 to 2.0%) and will recirculate water and sediment at up to 0.2 cubic ...

Volatile rainstorms drive complex landscape changes in deserts, particularly in dryland channels, which are shaped by flash flooding. Paradoxically, such desert streams have surprisingly simple ...
