Bank pull or bar push: What drives scroll-bar formation in meandering rivers? (2014)
Journal Article
van de Lageweg, W. I., van Dijk, W. M., Baar, A. W., Rutten, J., & Kleinhans, M. G. (2014). Bank pull or bar push: What drives scroll-bar formation in meandering rivers?. Geology, 42(4), 319-322. https://doi.org/10.1130/G35192.1

One of the most striking features of meandering rivers are quasi-regular ridges of the point bar, evidence of a pulsed lateral migration of meander bends. Scroll bars formed on the inner bend are preserved on the point-bar surface as a series of ridg... Read More about Bank pull or bar push: What drives scroll-bar formation in meandering rivers?.

Valley formation by groundwater seepage, pressurized groundwater outbursts and crater-lake overflow in flume experiments with implications for Mars (2014)
Journal Article
Marra, W. A., Braat, L., Baar, A. W., & Kleinhans, M. G. (2014). Valley formation by groundwater seepage, pressurized groundwater outbursts and crater-lake overflow in flume experiments with implications for Mars. Icarus, 232, 97-117. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.icarus.2013.12.026

Remains of fluvial valleys on Mars reveal the former presence of water on the surface. However, the source of water and the hydrological setting is not always clear, especially in types of valleys that are rare on Earth and where we have limited know...
