Textural signatures of sediment supply in gravel-bed rivers: Revisiting the armour ratio
Abstract
The surface of the streambed in gravel-bed rivers is commonly coarser than the underlying bed material. This surface coarsening, or ‘armouring’, is usually described by means of the ratio between surface and subsurface grain-size metrics (the ‘armour ratio’). Such surface coarsening is typical of river reaches that are degrading due to a deficit in sediment supply (e.g. gravel-bed reaches below dams or lakes), but non-degrading gravel-bed...
