Description :
The AA. review Bagnold's empirical formulae for bedload transport to seek the most consistent empirical representation, and to ask whether some rationalization is possible. Achievement of these objectives should increase confidence that a formulation of bedload transport based on stream power is a viable representation of the phenomenon. An issue in any empirical investigation is the data base upon which the study is founded. Accordingly, the AA. will begin with a brief description of Bagnold's data, and of their own.
