Bedload Initiation

Bedload Initiation is a theoretical construct in fluvial sediment transport that denotes the precise threshold condition under which stationary sediment particles on a riverbed begin to move due to hydrodynamic forces, distinguishing it from subsequent phases of sediment transport by marking the onset of particle motion.
