Fluvial Hydraulics and River Morphology

This lecture covers topics related to river hydraulics, waterway development, and fluvial geomorphology, discussing the morphological development of rivers, hydraulic construction platforms, flow rates, sediment transport, meandering rivers, and the adjustment of hydraulic geometry. It also explores the impact of human activities on river dynamics, the formation of different river profiles, and the characteristics of braided rivers. The lecture delves into the relationship between sinuosity coefficient and river morphology, the behavior of rivers in different geomorphological contexts, and the use of Lidar technology for river studies.
