Quantification of sediment transport through direct measurements and the use of empirical models in an experimental catchment in the Andes Mountains, Southern Chile.

The quantification of sediment transport is very important in engineering studies and in the design of dams and bridges, but at the same time is one of the most difficult tasks to undertake. Sediment transport monitoring is expensive especially in small mountain catchments, and requires long recor...
