Friction Factors for Coniferous Trees along Rivers
Abstract
A physically based model for estimating the resistance coefficient for coniferous trees in open-channel flow is modified to account for variations in the flexibility between species. The new model is based on the assumption of a linear increase in foliage area with height and a dimensional analysis. It is supported by experiments in air and water. The advantage of the new model over existing methods for estimating resistance factors is its ability to account for the interaction between the vegetation and the flow, taking into account velocity, depth of flow, and vegetative conditions (including type, size, stage of maturity, and density of vegetation). Based on the mathematical model, a table is provided to estimate Manning's n value for flow through vegetation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
