Description :
This paper reports simulations of the variability in hydraulic parameters for flows through pool-riffle sequences on the River Severn, England. Initial runs were scaled using field data. The conditions that may be associated with a velocity and shear stress reversal were identified, and enable an assessment to be made as to the nature of natural channel reaches which could be profitably investigated further with respect to the reversal debate.
