Comprehensive and Quality-Controlled Bedload Transport Database - Dataset

The processes involved in bed-load sediment transport are complex and challenging to quantify. Field measurements provide insight and a chance to improve predictive methods. A comprehensive database contains more than 15,000 observations from nearly 500 bed-load sediment transport data sets. The database includes sample descriptions, discharge and transport data, channel and bankfull characteristics, surface and subsurface grain size distributions, and, where possible, stream classification descriptors. The database is freely available to the public. This database aims to provide useful data to researchers studying bed-load transport processes.

This dataset is an updated and improved version of the original. The original version, cited in the paper https://doi.org/10.1061/(ASCE)HY.1943-7900.0001221, was hosted at a byu.edu server that is no longer accessible. This version includes updates and improvements to the original, provided by Sagy Cohen. Also included in this resource is an XML file of the site locations and a subset of the data for only major rivers.

床沙质泥沙输运过程中所涉及的机理错综复杂，难以量化。实地测量不仅提供了洞见，亦为提升预测方法提供了机遇。该综合数据库包含超过15,000次观测数据，源自近500个床沙质泥沙输运数据集。数据库内收录了样本描述、流量与输运数据、河道与河堤满载特征、地表与地下颗粒尺寸分布，并在可能的情况下，附有河流分类描述符。该数据库对公众免费开放。本数据库旨在为研究床沙质输运机理的学者提供有用数据。
