    This study presents fluvial geomorphic information on the lowest 4 to 8 km of eight major tributaries of Mackenzie River gathered from fieldwork, aerial photograph interpretation, and available published sources. The tributaries studied are North Nahanni, Root, Willowlake, Blackwater, Dahadinni, Redstone, Keele, and Great Bear rivers which are located between Fort Simpson and Norman Wells, Northwest Territories. Specifically, information for each study reach was compiled on the valley characteristics, hydrology, channel characteristics, lateral channel change, and interaction with Mackenzie River. The main body of the bulletin reviews previously published fluvial geomorphic research on Mackenzie River and the late Quaternary history as it pertains to the rivers. An overview section contains general information on the methodology, terminology, and the characteristics of the tributaries. River behaviours that should be carefully assessed prior to any development along a lower reach of a tributary are briefly summarized. Specific information on the eight individual tributaries is contained within separate appendices.

    During the examination of the historical geography of the Danube-Tisza Interfluve, the reconstruction of the medieval landscape was carried out, within which the channel conditions of the main watercourses were sketched. The Vajas River is assumed to be the most important medieval tributary of the Danube. It can be located based on historical maps, medieval and modern written sources. During the research, it turned out - based on our sources so far - that there was no tributary called Vajas on the right bank of the Danube. Only the tributaries/branches on the left bank of the river were called Vajas. The Vajas River was not uniform but consisted of at least four sections in an area of about 140 km from Kalocsa to Plavna.
