Examples of large river morphology. A: Madeira, Brazil. B: Solimões-Amazon, Brazil. C: Iça, Columbia and Peru. D: Orinoco, Venezuela. E: Middle Paraná, Argentina. F: Japurá, Brazil. G: Negro, Brazil. H: Jamuna, Bangladesh. Flow direction is indicated by arrows. Downstream image extent is 50 km. Average values of the ratio of particle fall velocity to shear velocity (VS/V*) for each river are derived using data shown in Table DR1 (see footnote 1).
