Characterization of meter-scale spatial variability of riverbed hydraulic conductivity in a lowland river (Aa River, Belgium)

•Riverbed K has been measured in situ by 220 slug tests and 45 standpipe tests.•Riverbed K shows significant meter-scale spatial variability.•A clear directional anisotropy is observed in the riverbed K dataset.•Riverbed structures can be linked to depositional environment and flow regime. An improv...
