The Palaeozoic evolution of land plants revolutionized river geomorphology. However, the
relationships between biotic forcing and channel dynamics are still debated and, as such …

Laboratory experiments to simulate landscapes and stratigraphy often suffer from scale
effects, because reducing length-and time scales leads to different behaviour of water and …

Braided rivers have complicated and dynamic bar patterns, which are challenging to fully
understand and to predict both qualitatively and quantitatively. Linear theory ignores …

There is a pressing need to understand how different delta morphologies arise because
morphology determines a delta's ecologic structure, resilience to relative sea‐level rise, and …

One of the most striking features of meandering rivers are quasi-regular ridges of the point
bar, evidence of a pulsed lateral migration of meander bends. Scroll bars formed on the …

Meandering rivers display active communication between bank erosion and bar deposition
processes. How does this occur? How does the river select its width? To answer these …

Strong feedbacks exist between channel dynamics, floodplain development, and riparian
vegetation. Earlier experimental studies showed how uniformly distributed riparian …

High‐resolution topography reveals that floodplains along meandering rivers in Indiana
commonly contain intermittently flowing channel networks. We investigated how the …

Alluvial river estuaries consist largely of sand but are typically flanked by mudflats and salt
marshes. The analogy with meandering rivers that are kept narrower than braided rivers by …

Cohesive floodplain sediment and vegetation are both thought to cause meandering river
patterns. Our aims are to compare the isolated and combined effects of mud and vegetation …
