OverviewAI-generated summary

José Silvestre's research investigates the influence of sea-level change and marsh sedimentation on river avulsions and deltaic geomorphology. His work examines how these processes impact delta top morphology, slope, and mass balance, contributing to a better understanding of coastal subsidence patterns through experimental deltas. Silvestre also studies how variable flood discharge constrains organic carbon preservation within deltas. His recent publications include "Effect of Sea‐Level Change on River Avulsions and Stratigraphy for an Experimental Lowland Delta," "Marsh Sedimentation Controls Delta Top Morphology, Slope, and Mass Balance," and "Sediment Compaction in Experimental Deltas: Toward a Meso‐Scale Understanding of Coastal Subsidence Patterns." Silvestre has a scholarly h-index of 4, with 11 total publications and 84 citations. He collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including John Shaw (7 shared publications), Sam Zapp (2 shared publications), and Kelly Sank (1 shared publication).
