Terminal fall velocity: the legacy of Stokes from the perspective of fluvial hydraulics
Proceedings of the Royal Society A, 2019 This review article, dedicated to the bicentenary celebration of Sir George Gabriel Stokes' birthday, presents the state-of-the-science of terminal fall velocity, highlighting his rich legacy from the perspective of fluvial hydraulics.

Fluvial sediment transfer in the Changjiang (Yangtze) river-estuary depositional system
Journal of Hydrology, 2018 Knowledge of the transfer of sediment through river systems is essential for understanding the physical, chemical and biological processes on the Earth’s surface.

River discharge variability as the link between climate and fluvial fan formation
Geology, 2020 There are two contrasting hypotheses on whether fluvial fans need specific climate conditions to form. Deduction of climatic and tectonic signals from landscapes and the sedimentary record is a key aim in geology and geomorphology.

Evolution of a late triassic fluvial system, NW Libya [PDF]
, 2007 Fluvial systems, channel sandbodies and valley fills have been widely studied and documented in the literature, with particular attention paid to their internal structures.

Influence of catchment processes on fluvial morphology and river habitats [PDF]
, 2011 Fluvial morphology is conditioned by three basic elements: flow regime, sediment yield and valley characteristics. These elements are controlled by factors operating at different spatial and time scales, within and outside of the basin.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The Upper Cretaceous São José do Rio Preto Formation (Bauru Group, southeastern Brazil) has yielded a fragmentary but taxonomically diverse record of titanosaur sauropods, although elements from cervical series remain scarce. Here, we describe a nearly complete sauropod axis from the Vila Ventura Paleontological Area, representing an uncommon ...

Extreme Coastal Water Levels Exacerbate Fluvial Flood Hazards in Northwestern Europe
Scientific Reports, 2019 Compound flooding, such as the co-occurrence of fluvial floods and extreme coastal water levels (CWL), may lead to significant impacts in densely-populated Low Elevation Coastal Zones. They may overstrain disaster management owing to the co-occurrence of

Retention of dissolved silica within the fluvial system of the conterminous USA
, 2013 Dissolved silica (DSi) is an important nutrient in aquatic ecosystems. Increased DSi retention within the fluvial system due to damming and eutrophication has led to a decrease in DSi exports to coastal waters, which can have severe consequences for ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The Aliança Formation (Jatobá Basin) represents lacustrine deposits formed in oxygenated waters that hosted a diverse fauna, including Hybodontiform sharks. Within this group, the Family Lonchidiidae comprises 11 valid genera, with Parvodus previously reported in Brazilian deposits from the Brejo Santo Formation (Araripe Basin, Late Jurassic ...

Critical dependence of morphodynamic models of fluvial and tidal systems on empirical downslope sediment transport [PDF]
, 2019 The morphological development of fluvial and tidal systems is forecast more and more frequently by models in scientific and engineering studies for decision making regarding climate change mitigation, flood control, navigation and engineering works ...
