The shortage of geological evidence for pre‐vegetation meandering rivers

WJ McMahon, NS Davies - Fluvial meanders and their …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Meandering rivers have been hypothesised to have been rare, or even absent, prior to the
evolution of land plants. This is supported by experimental models that demonstrate how …

Morphodynamics and depositional architecture of mid‐channel bars in large Amazonian rivers

RP Almeida, CP Galeazzi, J Best… - …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Large rivers are characterized by large water discharges, high suspended sediment fluxes

Exploring meandering river cutoffs

P Gao, Z Li - 2024 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Cutoffs, which include neck and chute cutoffs, are the results of the fluvial processes that
fundamentally influence evolution of meandering rivers. A neck cutoff happens when the two …

How is time distributed in a river meander belt?

A Ielpi, DP Viero, MGA Lapôtre… - Geophysical …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
River meandering controls the age of floodplains through its characteristic paces of growth
and eventual cutoff of channel bends, forming oxbows. Hence, floodplain‐age distributions …

A 3D forward stratigraphic model of fluvial meander-bend evolution for prediction of point-bar lithofacies architecture

N Yan, NP Mountney, L Colombera… - Computers & Geosciences, 2017 - Elsevier
