GEOMORPHIC RESPONSES TO CHANGES IN INSTREAM FLOWS: THE FLOW-CHANNEL FITNESS MODEL

ABSTRACT The flow‐channel fitness model is a conceptual and practical model for predicting the qualitative response of alluvial channels to modifications of flow regimes. ‘Fitness’ refers to the size of channels compared with the flows they convey, with the terminology derived from traditional geomo...
