Autocyclic Secondary Channels Stabilize Deltaic Islands Undergoing Relative Sea Level Rise

Abstract Understanding what sets the size and stability of deltaic islands is critical for predicting how deltas will respond to sea level rise. Models of overbank sedimentation produce an exponentially decaying sedimentation profile, seemingly incompatible with island stability, which requires unif...
