DESCRIPTION:Professor Christopher Paola\, Department of Geology & Geophysi
 cs\, University of Minnesota\, USA\nhttp://www.geo.umn.edu/people/profs/PA
 OLA.html\nVegetation profoundly affects the form and evolution of rivers b
 y dynamically affecting sediment transport and the selection of flow paths
 . We will review experimental and field evidence illustrating how vegetati
 on interactions change braided rivers to single-thread ones\, create self-
 assembled floodplains\, and set channel size. We will also review evidence
  that these effects have been important in controlling river form through 
 geologic time.
