This paper aims to explore the combined main flow and turbulence influence on sediment pickup rates by investigating four purposely devised cases, namely, (1) unobstructed flow over a plane bed; (2) unobstructed flow over a rigid‐dune bed; (3) flow obstructed by a horizontal pipe; and (4) flow obstr...
