Coarse sediment dynamics and low-head dams: Monitoring instantaneous bedload transport using a stationary RFID antenna.

Coarse sediment transport in fluvial systems serves an important role in determining in-stream physical habitat, spawning potential and benthic community structure. However, despite more than a decade of pressure in Europe to restore stream continuity under the Water Framework Directive (WFD), there have been relatively few empirical studies on how low-head, run-of-river structures (i.e.
