Explaining the climate sensitivity of junction geometry in global river networks
Rivers form characteristic branching patterns as they drain landscapes. Past work has shown that the angles formed between confluent channels at river junctions vary with climate aridity—but why this occurs is contested. We show how this climate sensitivity can be explained by the principle that riv...
