Mountain river confluences are characterized by narrow and steep tributaries that supply
abundant sediment load to a main channel that, in turn, provides the dominant flow …

The three-dimensional structure of water flow at river confluences makes these zones of
particular importance in the fields of river engineering, fluvial geomorphology …

River training works performed in the last couple of centuries constrained the natural
dynamics of channel networks in locations that include the confluences between tributaries …

In this study we investigated floodplain development at the confluence of the Paraná and
Ivaí rivers, Brazil. We evaluated paleochannels with sedimentary facies and morphometry …

River confluences (RCs) are important features within river systems where the three
dimensional (3D) flow structures and the downstream mixing of flows can cause deep scour …

In engineering terms, all materials deposited as a result of glacial and periglacial processes
are transported soils. Many of these deposits have engineering characteristics that differ …

This study proposes a new approach for determining optimum dimensions of protective spur
dike to mitigate scour amount around existing spur dikes. The main objective of this article …

Confluences are essential nodes in natural and artificial networks of open channels, where
the merging of flows creates a complex flow and scour pattern. The present study is an …

Confluences are the nodes of the fluvial network. They are typically characterized by highly
heterogeneous conditions that are favorable for a sound fluvial ecosystem, and play a key …

The technique of submerged vanes is a new and efficient sediment management method in
rivers. This method has positive environmental effects. The performance and efficiency of a …
