Depths Inferred from Velocities Estimated by Remote Sensing: A Flow Resistance Equation-Based Approach to Mapping Multiple River Attributes at the Reach Scale

Depths Inferred from Velocities Estimated by Remote Sensing: A Flow Resistance Equation-Based Approach to Mapping Multiple River Attributes at the Reach Scale

Remote sensing of flow conditions in stream channels could facilitate hydrologic data collection, particularly in large, inaccessible rivers. Previous research has demonstrated the potential to estimate flow velocities in sediment-laden rivers via particle image velocimetry (PIV). In this study, we...
