| Definitionskos:definition | An erosional channelised BARFORM that develops through flow erosion into a channel bank. LEDGE stratigraphy is continuous with the adjacent channel margin (usually FLOODPLAIN or TERRACE) into which the channel flow has eroded. Unpaired LEDGES reflect lateral flow shift during incision, whereas paired ledges indicate incision only (modified from: Brierley and Fryirs, 2013). Cf FLOODPLAIN TERRACE. |
