A multi-proxy assessment of terrace formation in the lower Trinity River valley, Texas [PDF]
Earth Surface Dynamics, 2022 A proposed null hypothesis for fluvial terrace formation is that internally generated or autogenic processes, such as lateral migration and river-bend cutoff, produce variabilities in channel incision that lead to the abandonment of floodplain segments ...
