Abstract

Vegetation in river effect on flow and sediment transport. Based on the main research results, this paper divided the study of effect of vegetation on flow and sediment transport into three aspects: flow resistance, turbulence structure and sediment movement. The flow resistance is mainly affected by the ratio of Manning roughness under different conditions, the turbulence characteristics revealed to Reynolds number in different regions, the problems of sediment transport and suspended is more complicated of vegetation. Research on vegetated flow has made great progress in recent years, but some mechanisms were still not be revealed and the achievements cannot be taken into practice widely. At the end of this article, some limitations and trends were present.
