critical review of Tayfur's sediment transport capacity model

Literature Review from the year 2015 in the subject Geography / Earth Science - Geology, Mineralogy, Soil Science, grade: 3, , language: English, abstract: The objective of this study is to review the paper "e;Applicability of sediment transport capacity models for nonsteady state erosion from steep slopes"e; by Tayfur (2002). The author investigates the applicability of the transport capacity models that are based on one of the commonly employed dominant variables - unit stream power, stream power, and shear stress - to simulate nonsteady state sediment loads from steep slopes under different rainfall intensities.
