“…This process is primarily achieved through the transport and accumulation of river sediments and is manifested in the macro‐geomorphology of the channel scour, dynamic equilibrium, and siltation (Zheng et al, 2018). However, if the intensity of external disturbances exceeds the channel strain threshold, destabilization phenomena, such as severe erosion, deposition, and bank collapse, may occur (Luan, Ding, Wang, Yang, & Lu, 2018; Zheng et al, 2018). Besides, human activities also can change channel topography.…”

“…Previous studies have shown that the operation of the Three Gorges Dam (TGD) has reduced the sediment load by 74% compared to that in 1950–1985 (Guo et al, 2019; Zhu et al, 2019). Numerous harbors and human infrastructure have been constructed in the upper reaches of YE, which have a profound impact on channel morphological deformation (Luan et al, 2018). For example, Wang et al (2009) reported that the Jiangsu reach of the YR changed from a depositional environment to an erosion environment around 1985.…”

“…This was done to evaluate the future capacity of these highly modified/novel ecosystems to provide sustainable riparian habitat, and to determine the potential ecological benefits of dismantling the engineered structures as part of a river-wide restoration program (Thorel et al, 2018). Though the particular configuration, timing and scale of the river transformation is specific to the Rhône River, the fact that these same influences have been imposed on many large, multi-use rivers in Europe (e.g., Arnaud et al, 2015;Hein et al, 2016), North America (e.g., Alexander et al, 2012Johnson et al, 2015) and elsewhere (e.g., Luan et al, 2018;Wohl, 2019) highlights the applicability of this study to other regions globally.…”

“…The main drawback of the latter is that these simulations require extensive calibration and validation which is not easy to perform [5]. However, there are still some aspects of the dynamics of these systems that have not been analyzed in depth, despite the fact that a significant number of the world's main bays and estuaries are made up of interconnected basins, including the San Francisco Bay [19,20], the Chesapeake Bay [21], the Yangtze River estuary [22,23] or the Harvey River estuary [24].…”
