| Abstract | Shallow shear flows play an important role in the transverse transport of mass and momentum in rivers. In order to understand structure of the flow and the mechanism resulting in the particular turbulence properties, three types of shallow mixing layers are investigated each with a different cause for the velocity difference: inflow conditions, bed level and bed roughness. It is shown that mixing layer properties are highly affected by the 3D turbulence generated in the bottom boundary layer. This implies that effects of subtle geometric properties like roughness variation and bed level changes should be incorporated in predictive models |
