| Title | Sediment Supply Versus Local Hydraulic Controls on Sediment Transport and Storage in a River with Large Sediment Loads |
| Creator | Dean, David J. Topping, David J. Schmidt, John C. Griffiths, Ronald E. Sabol, Thomas A. |
| Description | The Rio Grande in the Big Bend region of Texas, USA, and Chihuahua and Coahuila, Mexico, undergoes rapid geomorphic changes as a result of its large sediment supply and variable hydrology; thus, it is a useful natural laboratory to investigate the relative importance of flow strength and sediment supply in controlling alluvial channel change. We analyzed a suite of sediment transport and geomorphic data to determine the cumulative influence of different flood types on changing channel form.... |
