Confluences act as critical nodes in a river system. They affect hydrodynamics, sediment
transport, bed morphology, and eco-hydraulics of the river system. Convergence of streams …

Rivers and Floodplains is concerned with the origin, geometry, water flow, sediment
transport, erosion and deposition associated with modern alluvial rivers and floodplains …

Abstract Models of braided-river deposition must be detailed, fully 3D, and preferably
quantitative to be of use in understanding and predicting the nature of ancient deposits. In …

River channel confluences form important morphological elements of every river system,
being points at which rapid changes in flow, sediment discharge and hydraulic geometry …

Rivers are important agents of change that shape the Earth's surface and evolve through
time in response to fluctuations in climate and other environmental conditions. They are …

Tributary confluences are sites along a main channel where, because of the introduction of
water and (or) sediment, the water volume, bed sediment character, and water quality of the …

Although open-channel junctions are common in many hydraulic structures, no
comprehensive data set has been compiled that describes the 3D flow field within the …

Measurements of downstream and cross-stream velocities at a small, asymmetrical stream
confluence show that the structure of low-stage flows is influenced by the tributary/main stem …

Although a discordance in bed elevation between mainstream and tributary channels is a
common feature of most river confluences, this height differential is largely ignored in many …

Stream confluences are characterized by complex patterns of three‐dimensional fluid
motion. This paper examines the three‐dimensional time‐averaged flow structure at three …
