Rock strength and structural controls on fluvial erodibility: Implications for drainage divide mobility in a collisional mountain belt

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2019
Numerical model simulations and experiments have suggested that when migration of the main drainage divide occurs in a mountain belt, it can lead to the rearrangement of river catchments, rejuvenation of topography, and changes in erosion rates and ...

Re-evaluating luminescence burial doses and bleaching of fluvial deposits using Bayesian computational statistics

, 2015
The optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) signal from fluvial sediment often contains a remnant from the previous deposition cycle, leading to a partially bleached equivalent-dose distribution.

Challenges and Opportunities in Multi‐Method Integrated Geophysical Prospection of Buried Building Remains at the Sanctuary of Olympia

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ancient Olympia was one of the most important sanctuaries and the venue for the Olympic Games in Greek and Roman times. Its remains are located in the Olympia Terrace (Peloponnese, Greece) at the present‐day confluence of the rivers Alpheios and Kladeos at the base of Mount Kronos.

Dynamics of rainfall, discharge, suspended sediment and micropollutant transport in the Moselle River, Central Europe

Environmental Sciences Europe
Background Heavy rainfall causes not only high water levels and discharge but can also lead to the mobilization of sediments and pollutants to rivers. In contrast, droughts with low discharge can impair water quality due to minimized dilution.

Fluvial deposits as a record for Late Quaternary neotectonic activity in the Rhine-Meuse delta,The Netherlands

, 2002
Neotectonic movements have caused differential subsidence in the Lower Rhine Embayment during the Quaternary. The Late Weichselian and Holocene Rhine-Meuse fluvial archive in the central Netherlands was used to quantify neotectonic movements in a setting

Distributary channels in the fluvial to tidal transition zone [PDF]

, 2017
Coastal lowland plains under mixed fluvial-tidal influence may form complex, composite channel networks, where distributaries blend the characteristics of mouth bar channels, avulsion channels, and tidal creeks.

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Disentangling the relative impacts of climate change and human activities on fluvial sediment supply to the coast by the world’s large rivers: Pearl River Basin, China

Scientific Reports, 2019
The world’s large rivers are under stress and experiencing unprecedented changes in hydrology, ecosystems, and fluvial sediment loads. Many of these rivers terminate at the great deltas of the world (home to 500 million people), which depend on fluvial ...
