Spatiotemporal variations in channel changes caused by cumulative factors in a meandering river: The lower Peixe River, Brazil
(Elsevier B.V., 2016-11-15)
Channel changes in meandering rivers naturally exhibit complex behaviour, and understanding the river dynamics can be challenging in environments also subject to cumulative human impacts. Planform changes were analysed on ...
FLUVIAL FORMS AND PROCESSES ASSOCIATED TO MEANDERING CHANNEL PATTERN: THE LOWER PEIXE RIVER, SP
(Uniao Geomorfologia Brasileira, 2016-07-01)
The aim of this study is to identify and characterize forms and processes associated to the meandering channel pattern in the alluvial valley of the Lower Peixe River, Sao Paulo State, Brazil. Geomorphological interpretations ...
Meandering rivers in modern desert basins: Implications for channel planform controls and prevegetation rivers
(2019-05-01)
The influence of biotic processes in controlling the development of meandering channels in fluvial systems is controversial. The majority of the depositional history of the Earth's continents was devoid of significant ...
Temporal and spatial adjustments of channel migration and planform geometry: responses to ENSO driven climate anomalies on the tropical freely-meandering Aguapeí River, São Paulo, Brazil
(2018-06-30)
Two reaches of Aguapeí River, a left-bank tributary of the Paraná River in western São Paulo state, Brazil, were studied with the objective of assessing the role of bend curvature on channel migration in this wet-tropical ...
Heterolithic meandering-channel deposits from the Neoproterozoic of NW Scotland: Implications for palaeogeographic reconstructions of Precambrian sedimentary environments
(2016-01-01)
Pre-Silurian fine-grained meandering river deposits are apparently rare in the rock record. Most modern-day river dynamics are influenced by vegetation through bank stabilization, fine-grained sediment production and ...
The alluvial architecture of a suspended sediment dominated meandering river: the Río Bermejo, Argentina
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-03)
The alluvial architecture of fine-grained (silt-bed) meandering rivers remainspoorly understood in comparison to the extensive study given to sand-bed andgravel-bed channels. This paucity of knowledge stems, in part, from ...
Geomorphologic, circulation and dynamic analysis in a meandering tidal channel, Bahía Blanca Estuary
(Universidade de Vigo, 2003-12)
A meander of La Lista tidal channel (Bahia Blanca Estuary, Argentina) was selected in order to study the relationship between the geoforms that control the meandering channel evolution (mainly tidal flats and marshes) arid ...
A study of flow dynamics and implications for benthic fauna in a meander bend of a lowland river
(Int Assoc Hydraulic Research, 2015-07)
Channel curvature and riffle-pool bathymetry in meandering streams control complex hydrodynamic and morphodynamic processes. This study investigates how spatial and temporal heterogeneities in flow hydraulics influence ...
Geomorphic and vegetation changes in a meandering dryland river regulated by a large dam, Sauce Grande River, Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2016-09)
This paper investigates post-dam geomorphic and vegetation changes in the Sauce Grande River, a meandering dryland river impounded by a large water-conservation dam. As the dam impounds a river section with scarce influence ...
