Shields diagram with data from all the sites using 2-year return period. , in which is bed shear stress, and are sediment and fluid densities, respectively, and is the grain size to be moved multiplied by acceleration due to gravity. The parameter ( represents the Reynolds number, in which is the shear velocity and is the kinematic viscosity.
