The Palaeozoic evolution of land plants revolutionized river geomorphology. However, the
relationships between biotic forcing and channel dynamics are still debated and, as such …

Meandering rivers are diagnostic landforms of hydrologically active planets, and their
migration regulates the continental component of biogeochemical cycles that stabilize …

This paper provides a review of existing methods for determining paleohydraulic parameters
applicable to ancient lithified fluvial strata and attempts to update these formulae using …

Meandering channels extensively dissect fluvial and tidal landscapes, critically controlling
their morphodynamic evolution and sedimentary architecture. In spite of an apparently …

Stabilization of riverbanks by vegetation has long been considered necessary to sustain
single-thread meandering rivers. However, observation of active meandering in modern …

The low temporal completeness of fluvial strata could indicate that recorded events
represent unusual and extreme conditions. However, field observations suggest that …

The previous chapter detailed the geological evolution of the Lewisian Gneiss and Rhinns
basement complexes, the final stages of which were associated with the amalgamation of …

The Silurian-age rise of land plants is hypothesized to have caused a global revolution in
the mechanics of rivers. In the absence of vegetation-controlled bank stabilization effects …

The influence of biotic processes in controlling the development of meandering channels in
fluvial systems is controversial. The majority of the depositional history of the Earth's …

Flume experiments and field observations show that bank vegetation promotes the formation
of narrow and deep single‐thread channels by strengthening riverbanks. Consistent with …
