Lawler, D. M.
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, vol. 18, issue 9, 12/1993, pp. 777-821
A detailed review and chronological survey is presented of the various techniques which have been used for the measurement of river bank erosion and channel change. The techniques are classified according to the time scales involved (long, intermediate and short) and each is discussed with respect to accuracy and repeatability. The methods covered include sedimentological evidence, botanical evidence, historical sources, planimetric resurvey, repeated cross-profiling, erosion pins and terrestrial photogrammetry. Prospects for future developments are also discussed.
Keywords: River bank erosion; Channel migration; Lateral channel change
