Science - Geology / hydrology
English term or phrase: Vanes
Vanes come in four types: single vane, J-hook vane, cross
vane and W-weir. Vanes can be constructed from large tree
trunks or boulders, but most are built using boulders. Single and
J-hook vanes protect the streambank by redirecting the thalweg
away from the streambank and toward the center of the channel.
