The meandering planform of the Purus River (a tributary if the Amazon), shown as white wiggles on a black background. The width of the river and the size of the meanders are increasing downstream (top to bottom, left to right).
What if you laid out all the meanders of a river along a straight line, so that you can break the river into straight-ish segments and fill arbitrary spaces? This is the Purus River in Brazil; you can see how it is getting wider and the meanders are getting larger in the downstream direction

A series of five satellite images showcasing diverse landscapes: an island with turquoise waters, a snowy terrain, mountainous regions with winding roads, colorful lakes, and a dry, arid area with circular features. More importantly, they spell out DAVID with their landscape images.

Landscape evolution modeling with Landlab in my 300-level geomorph class this week. I like to add a heavy dose of fluvial erosion at the end so it turns into a Loess Plateau/Loess Canyons of Nebraska kind of landscape. I can't say enough good things about Landlab and the people who developed it

Two meanders of the Ural River, with green vegetation on the point bars. The trees seem to be larger and older on the older parts of the bars. Scroll patterens are fairly well defined by variability in the vegetation. Screenshot from Apple Maps.
Two meanders created using the 'meanderpy' and 'meandergraph' Python packages, with point bars color coded by age (green = older, yellow = younger).

Using reconstructed images, we create synthetic stratigraphy for the Ucayali River based on estimated aggradation and channel preservation rates. Though not fully realistic, it might be helpful for comparing with field data. Spot the two 5m-tall (unrealistic for sure) geologists for scale? :)

Image warping offers powerful solutions for reconstructing landscape evolution, even with incomplete satellite data. Check out these examples: from simple head-turning motions in cats to detailed reconstructions of the Ucayali River and Wax Lake Delta, all using just two input images!
