Abstract: Abstract Establishing critical comparisons between fluvial- and tidal-channel morphodynamics is a major goal in the study of coastal landscapes. Freely migrating meandering rivers are known to produce laterally extensive, sand-prone point-bar bodies which commonly exhibit… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The reservoir architecture of a meandering river deposition can indicate the heterogeneity of the subsurface reservoirs and deposition and evolution of the paleo-river. Although outcrop study has been useful in characterizing reservoir architecture, the… read more here.

Abstract: The widespread distribution of tidal creeks and channels that undertake meandering behaviour in modern coasts contrasts with their limited documentation in the fossil record, where point-bar elements arising from the interaction between a mix of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1130/g46319.1
Abstract: Sediment supplies are a fundamental component of alluvial river systems, but the importance of sustained supplies of externally derived sediments for the evolution of meandering planforms remains unclear. Here we demonstrate the importance of sediment… read more here.
