Sediments link hillslopes to river channels. The size of sediments entering channels is a key
control on river morphodynamics across a range of scales, from channel response to human …

Particle dynamics refers to production, erosion, transport, and storage of particulate material
including mineral sediment and organic matter. Particle dynamics differ significantly …

Rivers are the great shapers of terrestrial landscapes. Very few points on Earth above sea
level do not lie within a drainage basin. Even points distant from the nearest channel are …

In many gravel-bedded rivers, floods that fill the channel banks create just enough shear
stress to move the median-sized gravel particles on the bed surface (D 50). Because this …

Spatial and temporal variations in rainfall are hypothesized to influence landscape evolution
through erosion and sediment transport by rivers. However, determining the relation …

Earth's terrestrial topography evolves in response to the interaction of tectonics, climate, and
lithology. Recent discoveries suggest that the grain size of sediments produced on hillslopes …

The volumes, rates and grain size distributions of sediment supplied from hillslopes
represent the initial input of sediment delivered from upland areas and propagated through …

Valley width and the degree of bedrock river terrace development vary with lithology in the
Willapa and Nehalem river basins, Pacific Northwest, USA. Here, we present field-based …

Suspended sediment transport is an important contributor to ecologic and geomorphic
functions of streams. However, it is challenging to generalize predictions of sediment yield …

Beaver-related restoration is a process-based strategy that seeks to address wide-ranging
ecological objectives by reestablishing dam building in degraded stream systems. Although …
