What is it about?
Small geophone device, which can be installed by hand, was designated to quantify gravel bedload change depending on time.

Why is it important?
The small and low-cost approach has been succeeded to quantify local and time-depending bedload amount.
Perspectives
Spatial distribution of bedload can be measured by distributing the proposed devices on the riverbed. Such approach is significant to reveal spatially inhomogeneous bed-material transport in naturally formed streams.
