Critical shear stresses for erosion and deposition of fine suspended sediment from the Athabasca River / by B.G. Krishnappan and R. Stephens.: En13-5/95-58E-PDF

"The transport characteristics of the fine sediment are essential parameters for modelling the transport, fate and bioaccumulation of contaminants in river systems. In this study, which was carried out for the Northern River Basins Study (NRBS), sediments from the Athabasca River near Hinton, Alberta were tested in the rotating flume and their transport parameters measured. A brief description of the experimental procedure and some significant results are presented in this report"--Abstract.
