Fluvial levees in compound channels: a review on formation processes and the impact of bedforms and vegetation
Natural levees are wedge-shaped morphological features developing along the boundaries
of mass flows. When they form in fluvial landscapes, they can have multiple implications for …

Quantitative analysis of crevasse-splay systems from modern fluvial settings
Although crevasse splays are a common constituent of many fluvial and fluvio-deltaic
systems, they remain less well understood than the channel deposits in those settings …
