TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined sediment load changes across the Changjiang River basin based on a long time series (1950-2017) of sediment load data stretching from the headwater to the delta.

TL;DR: In this paper, a Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) was applied to retrieve high-accuracy digital elevation models in a tidal flat of the Yangtze Estuary by using a robust and accurate Progressive Morphological filter (PM) to separate ground and non-ground points.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed morphological evolution and changes of the channel-shoal system in the Changjiang Estuary, a river and tide-controlled coastal plain estuary, based on bathymetric data between 1958 and 2016.

TL;DR: In this paper, a flume experiment was performed using the pioneer plant Scirpus mariqueter and suspended sediment, and a statistical method was used to analyse the average velocity and the turbulence intensity.

TL;DR: In this paper, the morphological changes of two large shoals in the mouth zone (i.e. the Hengsha flat and the Jiuduan shoal) were examined using bathymetric data collected between 1953 and 2016 and a series of satellite images.
