River avulsions and their deposits

R Slingerland, ND Smith - Annu. Rev. Earth Planet. Sci., 2004 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract Avulsion is the natural process by which flow diverts out of an established river
channel into a new permanent course on the adjacent floodplain. Avulsions are primarily …

Anastomosing rivers: a review of their classification, origin and sedimentary products

B Makaske - Earth-Science Reviews, 2001 - Elsevier
Anastomosing rivers constitute an important category of multi-channel rivers on alluvial
plains. Most often they seem to form under relatively low-energetic conditions near a (local) …

[图书][B] Fluvial depositional systems

AD Miall - 2014 - Springer
In an earlier book, The Geology of Fluvial Deposits (1996), I set out in detail modern
methods of facies and architectural analysis of fluvial deposits, and used numerous case …

Interpreting avulsion process from ancient alluvial sequences: Guadalope-Matarranya system (northern Spain) and Wasatch Formation (western Colorado)

D Mohrig, PL Heller, C Paola… - Geological Society of …, 2000 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Alluvial deposits of the Guadalope-Matarranya system (Oligocene, Ebro basin, Spain) and
the Wasatch Formation (Eocene, western Colorado), provide time-integrated records of the …

Fluvial facies models: recent developments

JS Bridge - 2006 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Recent development of fluvial facies models has been due to improved description of
natural river and floodplain processes and deposits using:(1) ground-penetrating radar …

Sedimentary architecture of abandoned channel fills

WHJ Toonen, MG Kleinhans… - Earth surface processes …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Channel fills are common elements of Holocene river systems and older fluvial sequences,
but surprisingly little is known about formation and their sedimentary build‐up. Abandoned …

Sorting out river channel patterns

MG Kleinhans - Progress in physical geography, 2010 - journals.sagepub.com
Rivers self-organize their pattern/planform through feedbacks between bars, channels,
floodplain and vegetation, which emerge as a result of the basic spatial sorting process of …

Bifurcation dynamics and avulsion duration in meandering rivers by one‐dimensional and three‐dimensional models

MG Kleinhans, HRA Jagers… - Water resources …, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
At river bifurcations, water and sediment are divided over two branches. The dynamics of the
bifurcation determine the long‐term evolution (centuries) of the downstream branches …

Necessary conditions for a meandering-river avulsion

R Slingerland, ND Smith - Geology, 1998 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
There is as yet no rational basis for predicting the conditions leading to avulsion of a
meandering river. Here we present a conceptual model and quantify it under simplifying …

Using two-eyed seeing to bridge Western science and Indigenous knowledge systems and understand long-term change in the Saskatchewan River Delta, Canada

R Abu, MG Reed, TD Jardine - International Journal of Water …, 2020 - Taylor & Francis
Although researchers now recognize that Indigenous knowledge can strengthen
environmental planning and assessment, little research has empirically demonstrated how …
