Alluvial Processes

Alluvial Processes is a geomorphological process that involves the erosion, transportation, and deposition of sediments by flowing water in terrestrial environments, particularly within river channels and floodplains, distinguished from other sedimentary processes by its association with episodic, gravity-driven flow in non-marine settings.
