Examples of such larger-scale, emergent responses include channel incision and aggradation, terrace formation, channel migration and river meandering, formation of meander cutoffs, and transitions between braided and single-thread channel patterns.
Previous work provides some evidence that Taylor columns form over Davidson, which also affects meander formation and persistence as the California Current and Undercurrent flow past the seamount.
The good news is that hurricanes travel very slowly and can take up to two weeks to meander from their formation off of the west coast of Africa to the eastern basin of the Atlantic Ocean and beyond.
The fossils were found in the "Fram Formation", deposits of meandering stream systems near the Devonian equator, suggesting a benthic animal that lived on the bottom of shallow waters and perhaps even out of the water for short periods, with a skeleton indicating that it could support its body under the force of gravity whether in very shallow water or on land.
The sand-dominated braided rivers of the Lower Solling Formation are characterized by channels and downstream accretion, whereas mixed load meandering rivers of the Upper Solling Formation are represented by lateral accretion and laminated sands.
Processes of sediment transport are very different in Miocene Aghajari and Mishan Formations as form of meandering channels and their slopes are dissimilar.
(1) Horizontal 3D seismic slices reveal the abnormality of infilled incised valleys, which were approximately 10 km in width during the early depositional periods of both members of the formation; this finding may contradict the interpretation that the Shaximiao Formation was deposited by classical meandering rivers.
Between 7.6 and 6.5 Ma the sedimentation rate in the AB doubled from 0.5 to 1.0 km/Myr, and sedimentary environments changed from alluvial fans to meandering rivers with overbank deposits and paleosol formation (Fig. 2).
Focus of this study is the third sand group in the Guantao Formation, Ng3, which is a typical meandering river sediment facies.
The Pont de Montanyana outcrop exposes strata of the lower Eocene Montllobat Formation deposited in alluvial plains and in meandering river systems of the Tremp-Graus piggyback basin (Southern Pyrenees, Spain).
Mirroring the sensibility of a walk in the woods, Cage's densely drawn formations of poetic text include overlaps and strikethroughs, meandering directional line changes and sketches that summon a sense of inspired distraction.
