Rockbed Wear At A Flow Convergence Zone in Fifteen Mile Creek, Niagara Peninsula, Ontario

Rockbed Wear At A Flow Convergence Zone in Fifteen Mile Creek, Niagara Peninsula, Ontario

Sculpted bedforms developed in rock channels must be considered within the context of temporally and spatially persistent flow dynamics. A shallow meandering channel (14 m long, 30‐50 cm wide, 3‐4 cm deep) with raised margins has been eroded into resistant Irondequoit Limestone, forming the streambe...

Zusammenfassung:Sculpted bedforms developed in rock channels must be considered within the context of temporally and spatially persistent flow dynamics. A shallow meandering channel (14 m long, 30‐50 cm wide, 3‐4 cm deep) with raised margins has been eroded into resistant Irondequoit Limestone, forming the streambed of Fifteen Mile Creek; Ontario.
