Fluvial process and morphology of the Brahmaputra River in Assam, India
An attempt has been made in this paper to discuss the fluvial processes and morphological aspects of the river Brahmaputra within Assam, especially from its upper reach. The channel of the Brahmaputra River has been migrating because of channel
widening and avulsion. The braiding index of the Brahmaputra has been increasing between 1928 and 1996. Shear failure of upper bank and liquefaction of clayey-silt materials are two main causes of bank erosion.
Multiple thread flow and channel bifurcation in a braided river : Brahmaputra-Jamuna River, Bangladesh
Direct measurement of three-dimensional flow fields and morphological evolution of the anabranches in the braided Brahmaputra-Jamuna River, Bangladesh, were undertaken to investigate the interactions between fluvial processes and anabranch

Topography Mission measurements of water elevation are used to derive water slope over the braided Brahmaputra river system. In combination with in situ bathymetry measurements, water elevation and slope allow one to calculate discharge estimates within 2.3
The A. discusses a two-dimensional depth-averaged model, various meander models and a model for the braided Brahmaputra-Jamuna River in Bangladesh. Emphasis is placed on the need for future research rather than on model applications. The models help
Sur deux ans, on a pu évaluer la qualité chimique du Gange, de l'Indus, du Brahmaputra, du Narmada, du Mahanadi, du Godavari, du Krishna, du Tungabadra et du Cauvery. Les cours d'eau indiens sont alcalins et contiennent jusqu'à 25% de sels de plus
in northeastern and northwestern part of Bangladesh and adjacent Indian Territory. This rainfall pattern was also obvious during and/or prior to the severe flood events in Bangladesh. Extreme high water level of the Ganges in 1987 and that of the Brahmaputra
have been used to study the geological, geomorphological and tectonic setting of the area. The results suggest the presence of a highly mature, almost flat Brahmaputra floodplain evolved during the recent geological past, in which palaeochannels had
Gondwana formations occur as outliers on Precambrian rocks along eight prominent river valleys of India. Large-scale fold tectonics are postulated for the coal belts of Mahanadi, Wardha. Godavari, Pench-Kanhar, Ganga (Rajmahal), and Brahmaputra
