Abstract

Abstract. Spatially explicit mathematical models are key to a mechanistic understanding of environmental processes in rivers. Such models necessitate extended information on networks' morphology, which is often retrieved from geographic information system (GIS) software, thus hindering the establishment of replicable script-based workflows. Here I present rivnet, an R package for GIS-free extraction and analysis of river networks based on digital elevation models (DEMs). The package exploits TauDEM's flow direction algorithm in user-p
