Channel avulsions on river deltas are the primary means to distribute sediment and build land at coastline. Many studies have detailed how generate delta lobes, whereby multiple lobes amalgamate form a fan-shaped deposit. These often assume steady subsidence uniform basin depth. In nature, however, lobe building is disrupted by variable subsidence, progradation of into basins with depth: condit...

One of the problems in modelling stratigraphy and long-term morphology of fluvio-deltaic systems is defining the location of avulsions and bifurcations. Avulsion is a sudden abandonment of the channel belt; it induces switches of the entire main channel (Allen, 1965). The rapidity with which channel switches, crevasses and bifurcations occur varies from instantaneous, relevant for civil enginee...

[1] Alluvial fan deltas are built by aggrading and avulsing river channels. A numerical model of flow and sediment transport in channels is combined with a condition for channel avulsion to describe evolution of the fan surface. The model combines elements of two recent approaches: (1) diffusional models of depositional basin filling, which describe the evolution of overall morphology, and (2) ...
