Abstract The period 1965–2000 saw a sustained increase in research and publications on fluvial processes landforms. trend towards generalization and/or mechanistic understanding, rather than site-specific history, continued. Research was multidisciplinary, with important contributions from hydraulic engineers, geologists physical geographers experimental theoretical approaches as well geomorpho...

The migration architecture of the rivers has a significant influence on a wide range of disciplines. For example, the Geomorphology, the hydraulic, the climate, hydrologic and topographic characteristics and so on. Previous studies relating to the issue of fluvial migration include the literature of river channel patterns [1,2], deposition transport and grain size sorting [36], bend meandering ...

Streambank erosion is known to be a major source of sediment in streams and rivers. The Bank Stability and Toe Erosion Model (BSTEM) was developed in order to predict streambank retreat due to both fluvial erosion and geotechnical failure. However, few, if any, model evaluations using long-term streambank retreat data have been performed. The objectives of this research were to (1) monitor long...

Water was sampled monthly from September 2005 to August 2006 at 14 stations distributed throughout the coastal system of Anllóns-Laxe, from where 30 surface sediment samples were also taken. After filtration through 0.22 μm polycarbonate filters, dissolved inorganic and total arsenic (UV oxidation) concentration was determined by HG-AFS. After microwave digestion, the arsenic in SPM and sedimen...

Despite evidence that weathering plays a role in forming intertidal, estuarine, and fluvial rock platforms, many publications uncritically refer to “wave-cut” or “stream-cut” rock platforms. The alternative explanations of chemical weathering and physical water erosion of rock platforms have been debated since 1839. Our new approach to this long-standing problem introduces data from fluvial as ...

[1] In actively eroding landscapes, fluvial abrasion modifies the characteristics of the sediment carried by rivers and consequently has a direct impact on the ability of mountain rivers to erode their bedrock and on the characteristics and volume of the sediment exported from upland catchments. In this experimental study, we use a novel flume replicating hydrodynamic conditions prevailing in m...

The Kerrouchen Basin is an understudied rift basin in the Middle Atlas of Morocco, where over 600 m Triassic stratigraphy well exposed. It was partially inverted during Atlasic orogeny whilst preserving original geometry. Within Basin, two distinct fluvial systems are present. first, recorded by K3 Formation, a braided-meandering system showing vertical and lateral amalgamation. axial that show...
