Abstract Natural levees are wedge-shaped morphological features developing along the boundaries of mass flows. When they form in fluvial landscapes, can have multiple implications for river management trained inland rivers. This paper summarizes present knowledge regard to formation and evolution so-called sections provides novel hypotheses significance bedforms vegetation strips floodplain on ...

Geomorphic and hydraulic processes, which form gravel bars in large lowland rivers, have distinctive characteristics that control the magnitude and spatial patterns of infiltration and exfiltration between rivers and their immediate subsurface environments. We present a bedform-infiltration relation together with a set of field measurements along two reaches of the San Joaquin River, CA to illu...

Abstract. Despite the inherent difficulties in quantifying its value, bedload transport is essential for understanding fluvial systems. In this study, we assessed different indirect measurement techniques with a reference direct reach of large sandy-gravel-bed river. An acoustic Doppler current profiler (aDcp), dune tracking method (DTM) and hydrophone were used to determine rates by using cali...

This study focuses on the effects of vegetation patch density, bed condition, and incoming sediment flow structure morphology within around a patch. The variation in upstream adjustment velocity is not well defined for low-density patches but decreases with increasing density high-density patches. length region greater vegetation. Incoming causes reduction both steady wake at low density. recov...

Rivers and streams are a primary transport vector for microplastics (MPs), connecting terrestrial sources to marine environments. While previous studies indicated that pore-scale MPs can accumulate in streambed sediments, the specific retention mechanisms fluvial systems remain poorly understood. As part of this technical note, we present novel method quantitative analysis spatiotemporal an exp...
