Fluvial dynamics
Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-005654
The study of the physical processes that govern the movement of water and sediment within river systems, including erosion, transport, and deposition. It examines how rivers shape their channels and floodplains over time. This field considers factors such as water discharge, sediment load, channel slope, and bank stability to understand river behavior.
