Description :
The AA. use a dendrogeomorphic approach to compare the influence of vegetation and fluctuations in bed-level on the process of channel narrowing following a catastrophic flood, at Plum Creek near louviers, Colorado. The reconstructed record of channel change was verified from historical aerial photographs, and then compared to sediment stratigraphy and records of discharge and bed elevation from a streamflow gaging station in the study reach.
