Analysis of data from 280 rivers discharging to the ocean indicates that sediment
loads/yields are a log-linear function of basin area and maximum elevation of the river basin …

Recent research has shown that small, mountainous river systems (SMRS) account for a
significant fraction of the global flux of sediment and particulate organic carbon (POC) to the …

A general hierarchical framework for viewing stepped-bed morphology in high-gradient
channels is presented. We emphasize channel units—bed features that are one or more …

• This chapter discusses physical processes, classification, and response potential of
channels in mountain drainage basins of the Pacific coastal ecoregion.• A relatively simple …

Abstract Redwood Creek, north coastal California, USA, has experienced dramatic changes
in channel configuration since the 1950s. A series of large floods (in 1955, 1964, 1972 and …

Characteristics of the suspended sediment load in the Waipaoa River, New Zealand, and in
two of its tributaries (Mangatu and Te Arai Rivers) are examined for evidence of different …

Effectiveness in geomorphology may be associated with transport (work) and with landform.
Bedload transport may relate to both. Determination of that discharge which transports more …

The long-term effectiveness of a geomorphic event of a particular magnitude is the product
of the effect of a single event of that magnitude times the frequency with which it recurs …

The effects of clearcut silviculture (road building, clearfelling, cable logging, and site
preparation) were evaluated using long-term peakflow records for three small watersheds …

Providing a robust and reliable prediction model for suspended sediment concentration
(SSC) is an essential task for several environmental and geomorphology prospective …
