Relation of Missouri river flows to sandbar morphology with implications for selected biota
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
.e. an aquatic-terrestrial zone (ATTZ), within the main channel of the lower Missouri River. Predictive models of sandbar morphometry (area, wetted perimeter, elevation, and water-surface slope) were developed to determine how changes in discharge affect...
