An experimental study: effects of boulder placement on hydraulic metrics of instream habitat complexity
Abstract Boulder placement is a common method to restore degraded instream habitats by enhancing habitat complexity. This experimental study is the foremost attempt to systematically investigate the influence of rock-ramp boulder placement with varying boulder concentration and flow rate on habitat...
