Prediction of sediment sorting using MOBED : users manual update II / by B.G. Krishnappan.: En37-56/1987E-PDF
"River flow transports sediment both in suspension and by bottom movement. The interactions of sediment movement and the water flows are very compiex especially when neither the sediment supply nor the water flow is steady.The MOBED model mimics the real worid very well and this update improves it. Because river flow moves the smaller sediment first there tends to be a residue of larger sediment left in place which armours the bed against further movement. This update to the model gives a new routine which incorporates the sorting and armouring effect which should bring the model even closer to reaiity. All river engineers shouid include MOBED in their 'lexicon' of tools"--Management perspective, p. vii.
