Abstract
The complicated hydraulic processes occurring in flow through vegetation has prompted many research efforts over the course of past years. Recent interest in the positive environmental impact of wetlands has increased interest is fully understanding nutrient and sediment migration through these areas. Included in this article are results from laboratory models investigating flow through simulated riparian wetlands. Emphasis has been placed on measurement of turbulence intensity and statistical analysis of velocity profiles through various configurations of simulated vegetation.
