*[[Braided river]]s, which form in (tectonically active) areas that have a larger sedimentary load than the discharge of the river and a high gradient.
*[[Meandering river]]s, which form a [[sinuous]] path in a usually low-gradient plain toward the end of a fluvial system.
*[[Anastomosis#Geography and hydrology|Anastomosed river]] is a rare case of a relatively straight, complicated vertical sequence of river deposits with banks held together by dense [[vegetation]].
