The Navasota River Basin,itself a tributary of the Brazos River in Texas,is a dynamic watershed undergoing many natural and anthropogenic changes.Local stakeholder involvement in this watershed is quite high,and many ...
A river's planform pattern changes due to erosion of banks and the bed near the outer bend.The primary cause of these planform changes is the formation of helical flow patterns in response to centrifugal forces.Uncont...
The purpose of this research is to investigate the sinuosity of major rivers in the United States and the world, and to compare them to that predicted by the existing theories. It is shown that the average sinuosity o...
River channel shifting in the deltaic regime is an unabated occurrence.Channel shifting has become one of the concerns as it influences land use/land cover along the riverbank in various ways.For the management of the...
Lateral migration of the Bhagirathi River temporally creates unavoidable geomorphic hazards in West Bengal, India. The Bhagirathi River flows SW for ~67.30 km between the confluence point of Ajay and Jalangi rivers i...
Active tectonics in the south part of Alborz Mountain (Iran) has greatly influenced the drainage system and geomorphic expressions. The metropolis of Tehran is located at the southern foothills of the Alborz Mountains...
To understand the natural environments of drylands, deserts, arid and semi-arid regions of the earth is to understand the processes and forms of their rivers. One of the river studies and fluvial processes are morphom...

This small modern river system is located on a retativety flat (about 1°-2°), unconsotidated sandy pediment surface in the Uinta Basin of Utah, USA, and it is with a scare of about 30 m tong and 0.4-0.8 m wide, si...
Two techniques for exploring relative horizontal accuracy of complex linear spatial features are described and sample source code (pseudo code) is presented for this purpose. The first technique, relative sinuosity, i...
The channel of Bhagirathi River is the branches off from the Ganga at Nurpur (lower course of the Ganga). Bhagirathi River is one of the main rivers in Murshidabad district. Analyzing the image of the Bhagirathi River...
