Abstract:Background:
This study explores morphologic changes in the Ahr River, Germany, caused by the high-energy flood in mid-July 2021. Infrastructure systems influence river morphology, but causal relationships are challenging to establish. The study aims to assess the flood's significance as a morphological driver using the Lateral Mobility Index (LMI), as well as the impact of infrastructure on morphodynamics in terms of formation of mud deposits and stagnant water pools, considering three focus areas of about 1 t… Show more
