ABSTRACT:
The processes involved in bed-load sediment transport are complex and challenging to quantify. Field measurements provide insight and a chance to improve predictive methods. A comprehensive database contains more than 15,000 observations from nearly 500 bed-load sediment transport data sets. The database includes sample descriptions, discharge and transport data, channel and bankfull characteristics, surface and subsurface grain size distributions, and, where possible, stream classification descriptors. The database is freely available to the public. This database aims to provide useful data to researchers studying bed-load transport processes.
This dataset is an updated and improved version of the original. The original version, cited in the paper https://doi.org/10.1061/(ASCE)HY.1943-7900.0001221, was hosted at a byu.edu server that is no longer accessible. This version includes updates and improvements to the original, provided by Sagy Cohen. Also included in this resource is an XML file of the site locations and a subset of the data for only major rivers.
