The impact of vegetation on meandering rivers

A Ielpi, MGA Lapôtre, MR Gibling… - Nature Reviews Earth & …, 2022 - nature.com
The Palaeozoic evolution of land plants revolutionized river geomorphology. However, the
relationships between biotic forcing and channel dynamics are still debated and, as such …

Advances in estuarine physics

P MacCready, WR Geyer - Annual review of marine science, 2010 - annualreviews.org
Recent advances in our understanding of estuarine circulation and salinity structure are
reviewed. We focus on well-and partially mixed systems that are long relative to the tidal …

Influence of the point bar on flow through curved channels

WE Dietrich, JD Smith - Water Resources Research, 1983 - Wiley Online Library
In a channel with bed topography that does not vary in the downstream direction, a
secondary circulation composed of outward flow at the surface and inward flow near the …

A tenfold slowdown in river meander migration driven by plant life

A Ielpi, MGA Lapôtre - Nature Geoscience, 2020 - nature.com
Meandering rivers are diagnostic landforms of hydrologically active planets, and their
migration regulates the continental component of biogeochemical cycles that stabilize …

Bed load transport in a river meander

WE Dietrich, JD Smith - Water Resources Research, 1984 - Wiley Online Library
Bed load transport in Muddy Creek, Wyoming, a sand‐bedded meandering river with
equilibrium bottom topography, was found to consist of a zone of maximum sediment flux …

Flow structure at an asymmetrical stream confluence

BL Rhoads, ST Kenworthy - Geomorphology, 1995 - Elsevier
Measurements of downstream and cross-stream velocities at a small, asymmetrical stream
confluence show that the structure of low-stage flows is influenced by the tributary/main stem …

Flow and sediment transport in a sand bedded meander

WE Dietrich, JD Smith, T Dunne - The Journal of Geology, 1979 - journals.uchicago.edu
The boundary shear stress pattern and the superelevation of the water surface in a meander
on a small stream are predicted from two simple equations representing a frictionally …

Hydrodynamic processes in sharp meander bends and their morphological implications

K Blanckaert - Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
The migration rate of sharp meander bends exhibits large variance and indicates that some
sharply curved bends tend to stabilize. These observations remain unexplained. This paper …
