where H is the depth of the water, K ( z ) is the eddy viscosity coefficient of water,
K 0 is the eddy viscosity coefficient at the bottom, z, x is the basic set of coordinates
( x directed horizontally, z vertically upward), z 0 is the linear measure of bed
roughness,
t b is the shear
stress at the bottom level. These simplifications were discussed in the previous
papers (Meyer 2009a , b ). Under such assumptions, the solution has the following
form:
