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 ...
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 ...
Meander Statistics Toolbox (MStaT): a toolbox for geometry characterization of bends in large meandering channels
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
This contribution presents MStaT, a wavelet-based open-source software developed to provide a detailed characterization of large meandering river morphodynamics. MStaT integrates three independent modules: (i) meandering ...
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 ...
Is the meander growth in the Brazil Current system off Southeast Brazil due to baroclinic instability?
(Elsevier B.V., 2008-08-01)
Temporally-growing frontal meandering and occasional eddy-shedding is observed in the Brazil Current (BC) as it flows adjacent to the Brazilian Coast. No study of the dynamics of this phenomenon has been conducted to date ...

Large meandering bends with high width-to-depth ratios: insights from hydro-sedimentological processes
(Elsevier Science, 2021-02)
Morphodynamics and hydro-sedimentological processes in meandering rivers are one of the most complex phenomena observed in alluvial channels. Because of the complex nature of the interaction between flow structure, morphology, ...
