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 …

Across the United States, municipalities, counties, and states grapple with issues of ensuring

Over the past 35 years, a trend of decreasing water clarity has been documented in Lake
Tahoe, attributable in part to the delivery of fine grained sediment emanating from upland …

Fluvial morphology is conditioned by three basic elements: flow regime, sediment yield and
valley characteristics. These elements are controlled by factors operating at different spatial …

In most episodic erosion and deposition systems, knowledge of the timing of
geomorphological change, in relation to fluctuations in the driving forces, is crucial to strong …

A fundamental index of channel shape is the form ratio (w/d) which is determined by energy-
load relation and bank and bed materials of the channel concerned. Average river channels …

Headwater stream morphology is a direct reflection of watershed characteristics and
therefore can inform our understanding of anthropogenic influence on channel geometry …

Instream wood is recognized as an integral component of stream morphology in forested
areas. However, few studies have evaluated the legacy effects of historic wood removal …

Riverine infrastructure provides essential services for the operation and development of the
