The wide range of studies describing the role of bank erosion in fluvial sediment supply have mostly lumped amounts of bank erosion into coarse temporal units, such as years. This paper investigates sediment yields from individual bank erosion events within the upper River Severn, UK (basin area 380

Few studies have considered downstream changes in bank erosion rates and variability along single river systems. This paper reports some preliminary results of an intensive and direct ยฎeld monitoring exercise of bank erosion rates on 11 sites along 130 km of the 3315 km 2 Swale-Ouse river system in
This study explores the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) techniques for mapping river channel planform change and bank erosion probability. The method used is primarily based on an approach developed by Graf (Graf, W.L. 1984. 'A probabilistic approach to the spatial assessment of river ch
The Niger delta is intensely dissected by a network of rivers which erode and continuously reshape their banks resulting in net riverbank recessions. The rates of bank recession depend on season, soil type, bank height and stratigraphy, flow velocity and relative location along the river system. Ban
This paper examines the use of terrestrial photogrammetry as a technique for measuring bank erosion in a rapidly changing fluvial environment. It has been recognized that there are a number of advantages when applying photogrammetric techniques to geomorphological situations. In this study the enhan
