A Study on Variation in Channel Width and Braiding Intensity of the Brahmaputra River in Assam, India
The Brahmaputra River flows through Assam, India, for about 670 km along an alluvial valley as a wide braided river. The width of the river varies with time along its course. The braiding intensity of this river is estimated using the braiding index (BI) of Brice (1964), which also changes with spac...
