Models of landscape evolution by river erosion are often either transport-limited (sediment is
always available but may or may not be transportable) or detachment-limited (sediment must …

The cover effect in fluvial bedrock erosion is a major control on bedrock channel morphology
and long-term channel dynamics. Here, we suggest a probabilistic framework for the …

Successful management of natural and engineered channels with discontinuous alluvial
cover requires knowledge of how the cover develops and evolves. We report on physical …

Previous research into sediment cover in bedrock‐alluvial channels has focussed on total
sediment cover, rather than the spatial distribution of cover within the channel. The latter is …

Semi‐alluvial stream channels eroded into till and other glacial sediments are common in
areas of extensive glacial deposition such as the Great Lakes region and northern interior …

The alluvial cover in channels with non‐alluvial beds is a major morphologic feature in these
rivers and has important geomorphic and ecologic functions. Although controls on the extent …

Sediment grains in a bedrock‐alluvial river will be deposited within or adjacent to a
sediment patch, or as isolated grains on the bedrock surface. Previous analysis of grain …

In partially-alluvial channels, an understanding of cover formation over a non-alluvial
substrate is necessary for effective river management or restoration. Urban rivers, for …
