“…Variability is present in many key factors, such as sediment facies, aquatic and riparian vegetation, large bed elements (including wood, boulder and bedrock features), and topography. One‐meter resolution topo‐bathymetric digital elevation models (DEMs) are increasingly available and utilized in fluvial geomorphology (Piegay et al, 2015) to describe topography (Notebaert et al, 2009; Scown et al, 2015), segment rivers (Nardini et al, 2020), model two‐dimensional (2D) hydraulics (Milan & Schwendel, 2021; Pasternack, 2011; Tonina et al, 2020), classify and map landforms (Cavalli et al, 2008; Clubb et al, 2017), document sedimentary dynamics (Baartman et al, 2013), identify periodic width (W) and detrended bed elevation (Zd) undulations (Brown & Pasternack, 2017; Duffin et al, 2021), and evaluate topography for specific hydro‐morphodynamic mechanisms (Pasternack et al, 2018a, 2018b; Pasternack et al, 2021).…”
