Dynamics of braided river morphology using advanced geo spatial technology and modeling techniques

Abstract

The sand bed braided rivers are morphologically dynamic rivers The braided river morphology has intraseasonal variability in terms of bank erosion bar migration bar formation and sediment mixing These features represent the short term morphological variation during the flood waves passing over the river These morphological features are governed by many variables such as discharge sediment flux river bed slope and river flow width The river stage variation is an important variable in unde
