Abstract
After a discussion about some limitations of Schumm’s conceptual model for prediction of river metamorphosis, this study introduces the channel boundary material as an independent variable, and thereby establishes a conceptual model that can be used to predict the direction of channel adjustment induced by human activities. This model has been tested by data from natural rivers and a laboratory model river, and can be used to explain the complex behavior of channel adjustment after reservoir construction.
