Effect of emergent vegetation on riverbank erosion with sediment mining
The present work investigates the combined effects of the upstream sediment mining pit and vegetation on the riverbank using emergent rigid vegetation beyond the toe on the flow structure and morphological changes due to fluvial erosion. A steep gradient

Assessing riverbank erosion in Bangladesh using time series of Sentinel-1 radar imagery in the Google Earth Engine [PDF]
Riverbank erosion occurs along many of the Earth's river systems, affecting riverine populations by destroying agricultural land and housing. In this study, we detected past events of riverbank erosion along the Jamuna River in Bangladesh using time ...

Effect of Slope on the Stability of Riverbanks with a Mobile Bed: An Experimental Study [PDF]
The interaction of the river flow and riverbank wall particles leads to riverbank erosion and collapse in the long term. In the parts where riverbanks have fine-grained sediments and are subject to erosion and changes in water level, the possibility of ...

Riverbank erosion and migration inter-linkage: with special focus on Assam, India
Background Riverbank erosion becomes a vulnerable phenomenon in the bank of the Brahmaputra river and its tributaries. Around 17 riverine districts of Assam are affected by riverbank erosion and lost a large plot of land.
