Othonna koss-bekkeri Van Jaarsv. is recognised as a synonym of O. cerariodes Magoswana & J.C. Manning.

Vegetation growing in the water along rivers has been the subject of several studies since it was recognized that it could have a significant impact on the water flow. It may increases resistance to flow and causes higher water levels. Also, it has affects on the turbulent structure such as the mean velocity profiles. For flow of water through emergent vegetation, previous investigations show d...

We extend the dependency grammar induction model of Klein and Manning (2004) to incorporate further valence information. Our extensions achieve significant improvements in the task of unsupervised dependency grammar induction. We use an expanded grammar which tracks higher orders of valence and allows each valence slot to be filled by a separate distribution rather than using one distribution f...

Vegetation growing in the water along rivers plays an important role on the hydrodynamic behavior, on the ecological equilibrium and on the characteristics of the river. It has effects on the flow resistance and, as a result, has a large impact on water levels. The influence of non-submerged vegetation on flow is not so clear as yet; it needs to be further studied. The Acorus Calmus L is a kind...

INTRODUCTION: The calculation of Manning n values has been of interest since the Manning equation was presented in the late 1800s (Henderson, 1966). While estimation of n vahm for normal channels has been fairly well standardized, the estimation of n values in areas of dense vegetation continues to be subject to large variations depending on the experience of the engineer and the perceived dens...
