Funded Activity Summary

Anabranching rivers: the arteries of arid Australia. Multi-channel (anabranching) rivers are prevalent among the world's largest rivers and span vast areas of arid Australia, yet no comprehensive explanation exists for how or why they occur. This study determines why rivers anabranch, why Australia has them in such abundance, and how best to manage them for agricultural production and conservation.
