Advances in River Morphology Science, Tools and Datasets: Improving Our Understanding of Rivers

Session ID#: 160052

Session Description:
River morphology, or the shape and composition of river channels and their change through time, has fundamental effects on society and the environment. Issues such as flood hazard levels, health of aquatic and riparian habitat, sediment and nutrient transport, and biogeochemical cycling are all affected by river morphology. Yet, despite this importance, the spatial patterns and temporal trends in river morphology remain some of least known parts of the landscape. For this session, we welcome contributions broadly related to advancing river morphology science, tools, and datasets.
