The understanding and the quantitative description of channel processes provides an essential basis for the planning of protection measures. Channel processes are mostly triggered by rainfall events and associated runoff processes. Apart from possible flood hazards during an intense rainstorm event, a lot of damage is often caused by fine and coarse sediment in the form of fluvial bedload transport or of a debris flow. This work mainly discusses the topics of flow resistance, bedload transport, debris flows and the relation between magnitude and frequency of torrential sediment events.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dieter Rickenmann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138029610\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138029613\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/24\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 6.80w x 0.50d","brand":"Dieter Rickenmann","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48087692247295,"sku":"9781138029613","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e5cb4550-bac5-4531-a8fd-a423a6bf8151.jpg?v=1769100870","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/methods-for-the-quantitative-assessment-dieter-rickenmann-9781138029613","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
