Dataset

Description

This dataset provides information on the flood event on the Dutch Meuse River in July 2021. It contains data on the rainfall event, the river discharges and water levels observed and the morphological impact of the flood event. The morphological impacts relate to:
erosion and deposition in the main channel, including the sudden development of deep scour holes
deposition on the floodplains
bank erosion

Furthermore it describes:
results of 2D hydraulic simulations for the flood event, explaining triggers of the erosion and deposition.
characteristics of sediment in the main riverbed and deposited on the floodplains

The methods of data collection and analyses are described in the Methods section of paper "Extreme river flood exposes latent erosion risk".
