Figure 3: Velocity direction and magnitude at the abrupt bend on the Ovens River for a flow at approximately 80 percent of bankfull. Note the large recirculating eddy (blue shading) of low velocity over the location of Big Eddy bench, conducive to the deposition of fine-grained sediment, with nearby high velocities in the stem flow.
