Large floodplains have multiple and complex negative relief assemblages in which depressions fall below local or general floodplain surfaces at a variety of scales. The …
In an earlier book, The Geology of Fluvial Deposits (1996), I set out in detail modern methods of facies and architectural analysis of fluvial deposits, and used numerous case …
River bifurcations are critical but poorly understood elements of many geomorphological systems. They are integral elements of alluvial fans, braided rivers, fluvial lowland plains …
Geomorphologists have long studied the impacts of extreme floods, yet the association between the magnitude of flow parameters (discharge, velocity, shear stress, or stream …
The common view that frequent overbank flooding leads to gradual aggradation of alluvial strata on floodplains and delta plains has been challenged by a variety of studies that …
In spite of major physical impacts from large floods, present river management rarely takes into account the possible dynamics and variation in magnitude–impact relations over time in …
The depositional stratigraphy of within‐channel deposits in sandy braided rivers is dominated by a variety of barforms (both singular 'unit'bars and complex 'compound'bars) …

Sedimentation in the fluvial–marine transition is governed by the interaction of river and tidal currents. Tidal currents act continuously, albeit with small variations in strength as a result of …
Terrestrial paleoclimate records rely on proxies hosted in alluvial strata whose beds are deposited by unsteady and nonlinear geomorphic processes. It is broadly assumed that this …
