Chapter 4: Digital Data Supplements Rhine-Meuse delta in the Netherlands
In the unconstrained, low gradient setting of major delta plains, individual meander belts tend to function for relatively short periods of time due to repeated channel avulsion. Their short lifetime makes ‘deltaic’ channel belts suitable to study the products of steady meander evolution as the deposits and internal architectural elements preserved are often without complications of repeated bend cutoffs. This study investigated how sedimentary characteristics as preserved from subsequent stages of activity differ within the Stuivenberg channel belt. The Stuivenberg channel belt is a long-stud...
