Sedimentology and Avulsion Patterns of the Anabranching Baghmati River in the Himalayan Foreland Basin, India

The Baghmati River, a foothills-fed system in the Himalayan foreland basin of north Bihar, has an anabranching mid-stream reach and floodplains that aggraded rapidly during the late Holocene.
