Fluvial geomorphology has been the largest single subdiscipline within geomorphology for
many decades. Fluvial geomorphic expertise is integral to understanding and managing …

Newson and Sear (1998) define fluvial geomorphology as the science that seeks to
investigate the complexity of behaviour of river channels at a range of scales from …

Rivers are complex systems. The breadth and scope of research into fluvial geomorphology
for the two-year period between July 2001 and July 2003 is evidence of this. It is also …

Process-based fluvial research has gained considerable momentum since the 1950s. While
there has been a recent emphasis on applied interdisciplinary research, there remians a …

Rivers are significant geomorphological agents, they show an amazing diversity of form and
behaviour and transfer water and sediment from the land surface to the oceans. This book …

This progress report on the discipline of fluvial geomorphology reviews 147 papers
published in 21 key journals during the calendar years of 2006 and 2007. Papers are …

The period 1965–2000 saw a sustained increase in research and publications on fluvial
processes and landforms. The trend towards generalization and/or mechanistic …

The evolution of geomorphology and in particular, fluvial geomorphology, is at a crossroads.
Currently, the discipline is dismally organized, without focus or direction, and is practised by …

A stream flowing in alluvium deforms its bed surface, forming ripples, dunes, bars, etc., and,
in many instances, it deforms its channel entirely, thereby creating meandering or braiding …

River engineering is coming under increasing public scrutiny given failures to prevent flood
hazards and economic and environmental concerns. This paper reviews the contribution …
