Stability of delta distributary networks and their bifurcations

DA Edmonds, RL Slingerland - Water Resources Research, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
Delta distributary networks are created by bifurcating channels that commonly split their
discharges unequally. The origin and stability of these asymmetrical fine‐grained cohesive …

Defining the length parameter in river bifurcation models: a theoretical approach

M Redolfi - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
One‐dimensional models for river bifurcations rely on a nodal point relation that determines
the distribution of sediments between the downstream branches. The most widely‐adopted …

Flow fields, bed shear stresses, and suspended bed sediment dynamics in bifurcations of a large river

RN Szupiany, ML Amsler, J Hernandez… - Water resources …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Channel bifurcations associated with bars and islands are important nodes in braided rivers
and may control flow partitioning and thus affect downstream confluences, as well as the …

Tidal impacts on the subtidal flow division at the main bifurcation in the Yangtze River Delta

W Zhang, H Feng, AJF Hoitink, Y Zhu, F Gong… - Estuarine, Coastal and …, 2017 - Elsevier
Flow division at bifurcations in the Yangtze Estuary has received ample attention, since it
may control the pathways of terrestrial sediments over downstream river branches including …

Tidal influence on the discharge distribution over the Pearl river Delta, China

X Ji, W Zhang - Regional Studies in Marine Science, 2019 - Elsevier
The discharge distribution is influenced by the tidal behaviour at tidally affected junctions.
The Pearl River Delta (PRD) is one of the most complicated deltas and highly affected by …

[HTML][HTML] A reduced complexity model of a gravel-sand river bifurcation: Equilibrium states and their stability

RMJ Schielen, A Blom - Advances in water resources, 2018 - Elsevier
We derive an idealized model of a gravel-sand river bifurcation and analyze its stability
properties. The model requires nodal point relations that describe the ratio of the supply of …

The influence of the development of dunes on the stability of bifurcations in sand‐bed rivers

Y Jing, J Qin - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Channel bifurcations are common features observed in fluvial landforms from upstream
gravel‐bed rivers to downstream deltas. Extensive research has been carried out to study …

On some aspects of flow characteristics of the bifurcated channel–An experimental approach

A Das, BC Barman, N Nandi - ISH Journal of Hydraulic …, 2023 - Taylor & Francis
The purpose of this research is to get an overall idea about the physical process of
discharge and sediment distributions in channel bifurcations. A physical model has been …

Experimental and theoretical analysis of flow and sediment transport in 90-degree fluvial diversions.

A Herrero Casas - 2013 - upcommons.upc.edu
Fluvial bifurcations are systems that have a great influence on human society. Their
formation and evolution can affect to activities as agriculture or industry and a good …

[图书][B] The growth and evolution of river-dominated deltas and their distributary networks

DA Edmonds - 2009 - search.proquest.com
River-dominated deltas are dynamic environments and because they are home to a
significant fraction of the world's population we need to understand their growth and …
