Abstract
The main purpose is to analyse the modelling of gravel bed streams with movable bed models, comparing with same modelling of sand bed streams. The stream processes are the same for gravel and sand bed streams. The critical point is to develop a sound physical theory to be applied to basic stream processes, using simultaneously laboratory, numerical, analytical, and field observation efforts.
