“…The distribution of avulsion lengths from CROF18 is approximately constant and scales with the backwater length during sea‐level rise despite major changes in shoreline position. Avulsion lengths reflect a preferential avulsion node within the backwater zone (
m) that is upstream of the zone of prominent scour during high flows
, consistent with theory (Bresse, 1860; Brooke et al.,
2020; Lamb et al.,
2012). Dimensionless avulsion length values cluster in the range of
similar to field data and the CROF16 experiment (Figure 10a).…”
