Bank retreat plays a fundamental role in fluvial and estuarine dynamics. It affects the cross‐
sectional evolution of channels, provides a source of sediment, and modulates the diversity …

The partitioning of the total sediment load of a river into suspended load and bedload is an
important problem in fluvial geomorphology, sedimentation engineering and sedimentology …

The stream power incision model (SPIM) is a cornerstone of quantitative geomorphology. It
states that river incision rate is the product of drainage area and channel slope raised to the …

Numerical model simulations and experiments have suggested that when migration of the
main drainage divide occurs in a mountain belt, it can lead to the rearrangement of river …

Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Water Resources Monograph
Series, Volume 19. What are the forms and processes characteristic of mountain rivers and …

Himalayan rivers transport around a gigaton of sediment annually to ocean basins.
Mountain valleys are an important component of this routing system: storage in these valleys …

A landscape's sediment grain size distribution is the product of, and an important influence
on, earth surface processes and landscape evolution. Grains can be large enough that the …

Channel geometry exerts a fundamental control on fluvial processes. Recent work has
shown that bedrock channel width depends on a number of parameters, including channel …

We explored the dependence of experimental bedrock erosion rate on shear stress, bed
load sediment flux, alluvial bed cover, and evolving channel morphology. We isolated these …

The study of drainage network response to uplift is important not only for understanding river
system dynamics and associated channel properties and fluvial landforms, but also for …
