Flow resistance of emergent vegetation
Open accessAbstract
Conventional resistance equations (such as those of Manning, Chézy and Darcy–Weisbach) are inappropriate for flow through emergent vegetation, where resistance is exerted primarily by stem drag throughout the flow depth rather than by shear stress at the bed. An alternative equation form is suggested, in which the resistance coefficient is related to measurable vegetation characteristics and can incorporate bed roughness when this is significant. Equation performance is confirmed by comparison of predicted and measured stage–discharge relationships for flow through artificial cylindrical stems, and by comparison of calibrated and measured drag coefficient values for natural 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.
