shallower parts of the channel. This proves the inclusion of the local material in the
sediment transport, activated from the shallower parts of the channel.
12.4.2 Bead Load Transport—The Study on the Dynamics
of Channel Forms
For large rivers, such as the Lower Vistula, it is possible to use the dynamics measurement methods to assess the size of the sediment load transported in the form of bed
load. Bed load transport within the middle and lower Vistula being examples, is
