Crevasse splay morphodynamics near a non-vegetated, ephemeral river terminus: Insights from process-based modelling

Crevasse splays generate subtle local relief and contribute to fluvial basin sedimentary filling but controls on splay development along dryland rivers remain poorly understood owing to limited field, laboratory, and numerical modelling studies. Based on previously-acquired field data and new remote sensing observations of splay morphology...

Applying independent component analysis on sentinel-2 imagery to characterize geomorphological responses to an extreme flood event near the non-vegetated Río Colorado terminus, Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia

In some internally-draining dryland basins, ephemeral river systems terminate at the margins of playas. Extreme floods can exert significant geomorphological impacts on the lower reaches of these river systems and the playas, including causing changes to flood extent, channel-floodplain morphology, and sediment dispersal. However, the...
