Permafrost Formation In A Meandering River Floodplain
--
https://doi.org/10.1029/2024AV001175 <-- shared paper
--
“... KEY POINTS:
• River meandering resets permafrost development and vegetation succession by eroding old floodplain areas and depositing new land
• On the Koyukuk River, permafrost rapidly forms in new deposits, but it takes over 4 Kyr to develop to its full areal extent of 85%
• The rate of permafrost formation is likely linked to vegetation succession on younger and overbank deposition on older floodplain areas…”

River Network Routing And Discharge Partitioning On A Multichannel River Network
--
https://doi.org/10.1029/2025WR041417 <-- shared paper
--
"... KEY POINTS:
• River multifurcation pathways were identified in a vector river network globally
• A multifurcation scheme was added to a river network routing model to split river discharge at divergences
• Accounting for multichannels improved discharge accuracy and resulted in earlier arrival of flood waves downstream of divergences…”

Bei strahlendem #Sonnenschein sprudelt dieser #Wasserlauf in der KW 2024/04 munter und bewegt aus der Ziegelmauer und trotzt dabei mit seiner #Lebhaftigkeit den frostigen Temperaturen.

In bright #sunshine, this #watercourse gushes out of the #brick wall in the week 2024/04, lively and moving and defying the frosty temperatures.
