Contemporary management practices have artificially confined (strangled) river systems in
Aotearoa New Zealand to support intensified land use in riparian areas. These practices …

Sediment transport (bedload and suspension) plays a relevant role in the morphological
response of river channels to large floods. Sediment load controls erosion and aggradation …

Understanding the morphological erraticism for large braided river systems is still a
challenging issue in the present era of fluvial geomorphology. The present paper reports …

In this paper we develop a two-dimensional modelling framework suitable to study the
morphological evolution of vegetated braided rivers. The mathematical model features a …

The longitudinal connectivity of rivers facilitates the downstream transfer of discharge and
sediment. Any alterations to this component can potentially impair/block sediment …

Morphological processes in sand‐bed braided rivers are highly complicated and dynamic,
and it is challenging to fully comprehend and predict them quantitatively or even …

In this paper, we utilize a numerical morphological simulation approach to study braiding
channel dynamics under steady flow. We conduct 11 different runs in a laboratory …

Braided rivers are a major contributor of groundwater recharge, yet little is known about how
recharge rates vary in time. Existing methods for estimating groundwater recharge from …

Gravel-bed rivers are an important source of groundwater recharge in some regions of the
world. Their interactions with groundwater are complex and highly variable in space and …

Rivers are often confined by structures and subjected to aggregate mining. In dynamic
rivers, these interventions cause changes to riverbed and bank topography that potentially …
