Vegetation‐Generated Turbulence Does Not Impact the Erosion of Natural Cohesive Sediment

Vegetation‐Generated Turbulence Does Not Impact the Erosion of Natural Cohesive Sediment Deitrick, Autumn R; Ralston, David K; Esposito, Christopher R; Baustian, Melissa M; Burgos, Maricel Beltrán; Courtois, Andrew J; Nepf, Heidi Previous studies have demonstrated that vegetation‐generated turbulence can enhance erosion rate and reduce the velocity threshold for erosion of non‐cohesive sediment. This study considered whether vegetation‐generated turbulence had a similar influence on natural cohe
