Channel Morphodynamics

Channel Morphodynamics is the scientific study of the dynamic interactions between flowing water, sediment transport, and the evolving geometry of river channels, emphasizing morphological changes driven by feedbacks among flow hydraulics, bed deformation, and boundary material dynamics.
