Many current meander migration models employ a constant annual flow or dominant discharge value. To assess how flow regulation alters river function, variable annual flows based on an empirical relationship between bank erosion rates and cumulative effective stream power - were added into an existing migration model. This enhanced model was used to evaluate the potential geomorphic and ecological consequences of four regulated flow scenarios (i.e., different hydrographs) currently being proposed on the Sacramento River in California. The observed rate of land reworked correlated significantly with observed cumulative effective stream power during seven time increments from 1956 to 1975 (r(2) = 0.74, p = 0.02). The river was observed to rework 3.0 ha/yr of land (a mean channel migration rate of 7.7 m/yr) with rates ranging from 0.8 ha/yr to 5.1 ha/yr (2.0 to 13.3 m/yr), during the analyzed time periods. Modeled rates of land reworked correlated significantly with observed rates of land reworked for the variable flow model (r2 = 0.78, p = 0.009). The meander migration scenario modeling predicted a difference of 1 to 8 percent between the four flow management scenarios and the base scenario.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ISI:000240644500018</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ISI Document Delivery No.: 086ACTimes Cited: 1Cited Reference Count: 57</style></notes><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Univ Calif Davis, Dept Environm Design, Davis, CA 95616 USA.Larsen, EW, Univ Calif Davis, Dept Environm Design, 1 Shields Ave, Davis, CA 95616 USA.ewlarsen@ucdavis.edu</style></auth-address></record></records></xml>
