Abstract

Bank full discharge is generally considered to be the dominant steady flow which would generate the same regime channel  shape and dimensions as the natural sequences of flows would.  This is because investigation on the magnitude and frequency of sediment transport have determined that for stable rivers the flow which in the longer term transports most material has the same frequency of occurrence as bankfull flow.  For stable gravel-bed rivers, this is considered to be the 1.5-year flood.
