A critical review of Tayfurs sediment transport capacity model

Literature Review from the year 2015 in the subject Geography / Earth Science - Geology, Mineralogy, Soil Science, grade: 3, language: English, abstract: The objective of this study is to review the paper "Applicability of sediment transport capacity models for nonsteady state erosion from steep slopes" by Tayfur (2002). The author investigates the applicability of the transport capacity models that are based on one of the commonly employed dominant variables - unit stream power, stream power, and shear stress - to simulate nonsteady state sediment loads from steep slopes under different rainfall intensities.
