This paper offers a mechanism for meandering in an otherwise braided river and then discusses its general implications for river processes and fluvial deposits. Braided rivers manage to meander without the paired point bars and single-thread channels

When and how the central Rocky Mountains (Rockies) of western North America gained modern topography remain controversial questions. We reconstruct the middle and late Cenozoic topography along a transect that extends from the Great Plains of western

Decay of litter of salt marsh grasses occurs in three phases. First there is an early phase lasting less than a month, with fast rates of weight loss, during which 5 to 40% of the litter is lost, probably by leaching of soluble compounds. A second sl
