Abstract
Sinuosity is a quantitative index of stream meandering and a distinctive property of channel pattern. Among the variables involved in the geometry and dynamics of alluvial channels, sinuosity is functionally related to morphological, sedimentological, and hydraulic chracteristics. Sinuosity has been utilized in functional, comparative, and historical studies. The literature contains several different definitions of sinuosity, resulting from the use of different definitions for both the numerator and denominator of the sinuosity
