Abstract

Theoretical and measured differences between spacial and velocity-weighted concentrations show that (1) the spacial concentration is normally the greater and increases as the velocity and concentration gradients increase, (2) that velocity-weighted concentration must be used to compute sediment discharge, and (3) that spacial concentration must be used to compute the pressure or specific weight on the bed.
