Popis:	[1] The morphodynamics of large sand-bedded rivers and estuaries are ultimately controlled by the way bed material is moved and the development of large, subaqueous sand dunes that control hydraulic flow resistance. It is widely thought that the primary mechanism for moving sandy bed material in these channels is large-scale coherent flow structures that cause suspension events whose properties vary with flow, especially in tidally influenced environments. Here, we examine mean flow and sediment suspension events over low-angle dunes (lee face angle
