🪨 River Ford: Stepping Stones, Flow and Wading Hazard Lab
Change the discharge, bed slope, roughness and stone spacing of a river ford and read the depth, speed and Froude number from Manning's equation, see which of seven stepping stones stay dry, how the stone row chokes the flow, and when an inanimate test post slides or topples (drag, buoyancy, d x V rule of thumb).
