Hi all,
Could anyone suggest me articles/ book on hydraulic geometry that discusses the changes in hydraulic geometry at confluence zone as well as through the river and also estimating the hydraulic geometry of these rivers? I am especially interested in the braided/ anastomosing river in tide-dominated delta/ tide-influenced delta.
It would be my pleasure if you can suggest me very recent publication as well as old publication and send me the links.
Thanks to all in advance.
Dear Supriti,
Here are some useful links

You might find some of Dr. David Rosgen's work at www.wildlandhydrology.com interesting for his stream classification and discussion of D and DA types of braided streams, as comparative to other types, and topographic setting, etc, and suggestions of how to measure various stream metrics, etc. He worked with Dr. Luna Leopold and several other noted hydrologists, and still continues to put on training sessions in awareness and applications of his work to stabilize or restore streams, etc. A few of recent coauthored publications in my researchgate were within the Atlantic coastal plain (South Carolina, Santee Experimental Forest and Francis Marion National Forest), so you might find some information, and the use of LiDAR much needed in these low gradient systems with increased ability to detect and hand digitize substantial channel detail.
There are also several articles that discuss stream metrics within the physiographic areas of North Carolina. Periann Russell is the primary investigator or collaborator who I know has been involved for a substantial period of time. You can google on her name, as they have done work also in the coastal plain and flatwoods. I am not sure the degree that they have collected metrics on braided systems however, as they typically have surveyed signle thread systems.
An old article I had in my files, you might find interesting on how measured and analyzed
Thank you so much, William and Bachir. I am afraid that I am looking for the hydraulic geometry of braided / anastomosing rivers in tidal delta.
