  • Historical changes of a major juncture : Lower Old River, Louisiana
  • Changing fluvial systems
  • Old River is one of the most important river junctures in North America. It connects 3 large, navigable rivers : the Mississippi, Atchafalaya and Red. This paper examines the historical changes of Lower Old River, the main juncture prior to 1963
  • before the flow became controlled by structures, including its flow changes, human modifications, and whether and how it was changing as the Atchafalaya received more flow. In contrast to some reports that suggest that bidirectional flow in Old River
  • , the first of unknown cause in the late 1910s, the second likely instigated by the flood of record in 1927, and the third immediately following a local artificial cut-off in 1944-1945. Also, changes in flow and geometry in Lower Old River are related
  • to changes in the adjacent Mississippi and Atchafalaya Rivers.

  • Stream power, channel change, and channel geometry in the Blue River, Wisconsin
  • Changing fluvial systems
  • This study examines spatial and temporal changes in channel geometry and stream power in a moderate-sized watershed in the Driftless Area of Wisconsin, USA. Pre-settlement (~1830) channel geometry and stream power estimates derived from General Land

  • Changing fluvial systems
  • Spatial patterns in geomorphic variations are examined in a river transition from the Southern Blue Ridge to the Piedmont physiographic regions. Downstream hydraulic geometry (DHG), fining of bed material, and changes in reach-scale channel-bed
