Late Quaternary fluvial stratigraphy of the St. Albans archeologic site (46KA27), West Virginia
<p>The St. Albans archeologic site, recognized since 1964, occurs on a low terrace of the Kanawha River. Stratigraphic and magnetic susceptibility studies at the site have lead to the development of a model for predicting artifact recovery potential that is important to planning future excavations …

From grain to floodplain: evaluating heterogeneity of floodplain hydrostratigraphy using sedimentology, geophysics, and remote sensing
Floodplain stratigraphy, a major structural element of alluvial aquifers, is a fundamental component of floodplain heterogeneity, hydraulic conductivity, and connectivity. Watershed-scale hydrological models often simplify floodplains by modeling them as largely homogeneous, which inherently …

Remote sensing of river kinematics and their expression in the modern and ancient stratigraphic record
… and (3) the three-dimensional nature of fluvial stratigraphy. Chapter 2 focuses on the map-view impact of bend cutoffs on subsequent lateral migration rates and patterns as captured by 37 years of Landsat satellite imagery using a newly developed automated channel extraction and tracking …

Analysis of deposition, erosion, and landscape stability during the late Quaternary using multi-proxy evidence from Owl Creek, Central Texas, USA.
Episodes of fluvial deposition and incision preserved in Quaternary sediments are valuable archives of environmental change, but have been understudied in low order streams in central Texas, USA. An exposure along Owl Creek a tributary of the Brazos River was examined using geological and …
