Sediment Diffusivity

Sediment Diffusivity is a transport parameter in fluvial sediment dynamics that quantifies the rate at which suspended sediment particles spread in a fluid medium due to turbulent mixing, distinguishing it from molecular diffusion by accounting specifically for the enhanced dispersion of sediment in turbulent flow conditions.
