Rivers are important agents of change that shape the Earth's surface and evolve through
time in response to fluctuations in climate and other environmental conditions. They are …

When the water discharge, sediment supply, and base level vary around stable values, an
alluvial river evolves toward a mean equilibrium or graded state with small fluctuations …

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 …

While most of the world's large rivers are heavily engineered, channel response to
engineering measures on decadal to century and several 100 km scales is scarcely …

Human intervention makes river channels adjust their slope and bed surface grain size as
they transition to a new equilibrium state in response to engineering measures. Climate …

The downstream fining of riverbed sediments is ubiquitous; however, this pattern is
controlled by multiple factors, including abrasion, sorting, characteristics of sediment …

A bifurcation in an engineered river system (ie, fixed planform and width) has fewer degrees
of freedom in its response to interventions and natural changes than a natural bifurcation …

Abstract The Lancang River and Nu River are parallel rivers located in southwestern China;
while the Lancang River has several dams, the Nu River has none. To explore the impacts …

The sensitivity of fluvial systems to tectonic and climatic boundary conditions allows us to
use the geomorphic and stratigraphic records as quantitative archives of past climatic and …

Field observations, experiments, and numerical simulations suggest that pool‐riffles along
gravel bed mountain streams develop due to downstream variations of channel width …
