Published in 2020 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"

DOI: 10.1002/esp.4832

Abstract: Recent studies provide a theoretical framework for understanding the incision of bedrock rivers by plucking. These studies motivated the development of a numerical model that simulates plucking to explore the evolution of channel profiles in… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Mountain Science"

DOI: 10.1007/s11629-017-4751-y

Abstract: The longitudinal profile of a river channel can be described in function of mathematical expressions. The logarithmic fit is the most used method to describe the relative equilibrium of a channel elevation profile. Rivers showing… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "International Journal of Digital Earth"

DOI: 10.1080/17538947.2022.2055173

Abstract: ABSTRACT River profile analysis has been used extensively in the earth sciences. Commonly, exploration of river profiles requires downloading and processing Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) for specific areas, which limits the scope of exploratory analysis.… read more here.
