## Abstract River channel sedimentation in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River can be affected by both changes in sea level and changes in solid discharge from the upper river. To evaluate dynamic changes of sedimentation and erosion in the Jiangsu reach of the Yangtze River (about 330Β km in len
Late Quaternary sediments of the Bengal basin contain a history of river switching and climate change as revealed from sand-and clay-size mineralogy of boreholes and modern riverbed grabs. Epidote to garnet ratios (E/G) in sand fraction sediments are diagnostic of source, with high ( > 1) E/G indica
## PROBLEMS The Nile River system (Blue and White) is regarded as one of the most important ecohydrological systems of the world. Although the freshwater carried by Nile accounts a very small fraction of the volume of water compared to Amazon (2%), Mississippi (15%) and Mekong (20%) Rivers, its div
## Abstract Global warming predicted by general circulation models (GCM) is now a more and more generally agreed upon effect. The impact of climate change on summer and fall flooding on the ChΓ’teauguay River Basin (2500 km^2^), located at the southern end of the Quebec province (Canada), was invest
