New paper by Ph.D. candidate Yuan Li and Assistant Professor Ajay Limaye tests predictions for river migration
A new open-access paper focusing on evaluating predictions for the migration of meandering rivers has been published in Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface. A model testing framework was developed to compare field observations and model predictions for channel migration of seven rivers from the Amazon Basin and 103 rivers in the continental US. Results of this study provide a pathway to further improve models for channel migration.
