Forest Disturbances: Occurrences and Impacts of Recreational, Hydrogeomorphic, and Climatic Disturbances
… term rates (131 years) along a natural levee and backswamp. Radial growth in green ash along the natural levee and backswamp was found to be significantly correlated with days flooded and average daily stage level during April while water tupelo further in the backswamp appeared resistant to …

Geomorphic History of the Atchafalaya Backwater Area: Upper Deltaic Plain Development
… composed mainly of lacustrine, lacustrine delta, backswamp, and crevasse channels, with minimal distributary development. The lower deltaic plain is characterized by numerous distributaries forming distributary systems and lobes. Detailed geomorphic mapping and chronologic reconstruction within …

Exploring Overbank Sediment Deposition Variation in Heavily Modified Floodplains of the Lower Mississippi River: A Sedimentological and Geophysical Analysis
… cores from both locations in meander scroll and backswamp depositional environments. Through analyzing systematic depositional changes through time and testing the capabilities of GPR in delineating subsurface wetland facies, probable event markers for the historic 1973, 2011, and 2018-2020 …

A stratigraphic and sedimentologic analysis of the Tongue River and Sentinel Butte Formations (Paleocene), western North Dakota
… environments; channel, floodplain, and backswamp facies are recognized. Significant differences in fluvial regimes are indicated by the relative abundances of .flood plain and backswamp sediments deposited by Tongue River and Sentinel Butte streams. CM patterns give values for maximum …

Sedimentary Characteristics and Nutrient Sequestration of Embanked Floodplains Along the Lower Mississippi River, Mississippi and Louisiana
… including levee backslope, point-bar and backswamp, taken from the Lower Mississippi floodplain were analyzed for their organic matter (OM), carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), magnetic susceptibility, and particle size with depth. High concentrations of C, N, and OM are decreasing …

Holocene floodplain vegetation dynamics and sea-level change in the lower Aire valley, Yorkshire
… carr communities dominated the wet floodplain backswamp areas. During mid-Holocene times, the vegetation of the surrounding dryland, was colonised by a mixed woodland, with Tilia, Ulmus, Quercus, and probably, Corylus avellana and Fraxinus excelsior. Pinus sylvestris was also prevalent in the …

Sedimentary Dynamics and Water Quality in Floodplains of the Lower Mississippi River near Natchez, Mississippi, during the 2018 and 2019 Floods
… C, and nutrients were statistically higher in backswamps and swales relative to the other subenvironments. Subenvironment classifications (levee, backswamp, meander scroll) had a stronger correlation to grain size than grouping the data by year. When the data was grouped by year, little …
