Living landscapes: Muddy and vegetated floodplain effects on fluvial pattern in an incised river

<p>The matlab data consists of 14 model runs (lab numbers in filenames), each for two timesteps in separate files, namely one for low river flow (ecological timestep 12, which is in month 6) and one for high river flow (ecological timestep 24, which is in month 12). The hydromorphological model is Delf3D, which is coupled to a riparian vegetation model 24 times per year for 150 years (some for 300 years). Each matlab file contains all variables stored by Delft3D and by the vegetation model. The most relevant variables are three-dimensional matrices containing the yearly maps. The various model runs are permutations on only sand, including mud (at various concentrations and erosion thresholds) and/or riparian vegetation.</p> <table> <caption>Table: Model runs with lab number, number in the publication, and keyworks describing the model</caption> <thead> <tr> <th scope="col">lab run number</th> <th scope="col">run number in Kleinhans et al. 2018</th> <th scope="col">properties</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>153</td> <td>4</td> <td>only sand</td> </tr> <tr> <td>149</td> <td>3</td> <td>mud added default concentration default erosion threshold</td> </tr> <tr> <td>131</td> <td>2</td> <td>vegetation added</td> </tr> <tr> <td>132</td> <td>1</td> <td>mud and vegetation</td> </tr> <tr> <td>139</td> <td>5</td> <td>5 mg/L mud</td> </tr> <tr> <td>140</td> <td>6</td> <td>50 mg/L</td> </tr> <tr> <td>141</td> <td>7</td> <td>100 mg/L</td> </tr> <tr> <td>162</td> <td>8</td> <td>500 mg/L</td> </tr> <tr> <td>144</td> <td>9</td> <td>0.1 N/m2 critical shear stress</td> </tr> <tr> <td>145</td> <td>10</td> <td>0.5 N/m2</td> </tr> <tr> <td>161</td> <td>12</td> <td>500 mg/L 0.5 N/m2 vegetation</td> </tr> <tr> <td>160</td> <td>14</td> <td>500 mg/L 0.5 N/m2</td> </tr> <tr> <td>158</td> <td>13</td> <td>800 mg/L 0.5 N/m2 vegetation</td> </tr> <tr> <td>159</td> <td>11</td> <td>100 mg/L 0.5 N/m2 vegetation</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>The open access paper describing the data and its method of production is:<br> Living landscapes: Muddy and vegetated floodplain effects on fluvial pattern in an incised river</p> <p>Maarten G.
