I collected time lapse photography of a reservoir drawdown with Greg Taylor and track the channel migration with the downstream sediment concentrations.

We modeled this flush in HEC-RAS over three different years with the same sediment parameters, and the model approximated the peak concentrations in the years they were collected.

A description of the USGS sampling program that generated the downstream concentration data is here: https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2014/1114/pd...

I'll post a longer, slower version that is pure footage later.
