Auteur(s) et Affiliation(s)



Description :
Bankfull discharge was identified in some 30 gravel-bed rivers representing in total c. 40 gauging stations. The catchment sizes vary from 4km2 to nearly 2700 km2. Bankfull discharge value increases with basin size. The selected rivers are spread over 5 natural regions which show strong lithological differences. The AA. study the bankfull discharge recurrence interval for rivers flowing on permeable and impermeable terrain.
