Flow Resistance in Open Channel Due to Vegetation at Reach Scale: A Review

Vegetation on the banks and flooding areas of watercourses significantly affects energy losses. To take the latter into account, computational models make use of resistance coefficients based on the evaluation of bed and walls roughness besides the resistance to flow offered by vegetation. This pape...
