. The resulting stochastic field of sediment supply interacts with the topology of the channel network and with transport processes to generate spatial and temporal patterns of flux and storage that characterize the sedimentation regime of a drainage basin. The regime varies systematically with basin area. We

. Specific examples of these applications include hydraulic geometry relations, sediment supply/availability, fish habitat structure evaluation, flow resistance, critical shear stress estimates, shear stress/velocity relations, streambank erodibility potential, management interpretations, sequences

Sediment supplies and stream discharge together determine the patterns, over time, of suspended sediment loads in small streams. Most of the uncertainty in empirical streamflow-sediment relationships can be attributed to changing supplies. Our transport model utilizes a power function of the form C

dynamics in Long Island Sound, results indicated that shifts in the benthic community composition could change sediment oxygen con-sumption rates sufficiently to disrupt the balance between the physical supply of oxygenated water and biological oxygen demand. The results of this study confirm

the continental shelves of the China Seas were coastal plains during the Late Pleistocene, modern river sediments rarely extend to the outer shelves except in response to changes in sea level. The modern continental shelf of the China Seas was a coastal plain during the Late Pleistocene. River processes were

Abstract. The intensity, duration and frequency of coastal hypoxia (oxygen concentration <63µM) are increasing due to human alteration of coastal ecosystems and changes in oceanographic conditions due to global warming. Here we provide a concise review of the consequences of coastal hy

within a common fluvial geo-morphology framework defined by sediment supply, stor-age, and transport. Landuse impacts in geologically young landscapes with high sediment yields (e.g., coastal British Columbia) typically result in loss of instream wood and accelerated sediment inputs from bank erosion
