Generally:
Channel widening is evident over much of the channel length (>one-half reach length). Pools are less frequent and shallow (<0.5 m in depth). Riffles make up over 50% of the channel length. Side and mid-channel bars are more extensive. Mid-channel bars are relatively high, with bar tops as high as banks. LWD is less evenly distributed, often clumped into jams. Individual pieces are oriented parallel to the banks. |
