AB  - Fluvial geomorphologists have tried to describe the 
outstanding tectonically affected avulsion process of Tisza 
River at the Great Hungarian Plain by various theoretical 
concepts. Flume experiments provide the ability to examine 
the main characteristic processes of a highlighted surface 
development theory under controlled settings within an 
accelerated time scale. Our goal was to reconstruct and 
refine these hypotheses from a new experimental point of 
view. Contrary to the previous flume studies focused on a 
highlighted mechanism, our experiment combined several 
processes for confirmation purposes. In this study we 
performed an experiment of the avulsion process mentioned 
above on a 12 x 5 x 2.5 m flume where a special instrument 
was planted under the sand layers in order to simulate the 
vertical tectonic movements. A terrestrial laser scanner was 
used to record the different stages of the topographic 
evolution. We shaped the initial surface and executed the 
main landscape forming processes according to theoretical 
descriptions then with modifications to examine the 
similarities and differences between the experimental 
outcomes and the theoretical evolution. The results of three 
different types of scenarios proved the key role of the 
uplifting Nyírség alluvial fan in the channel direction 
changing process of Tisza River. On the other hand, the role 
of Bodrogköz area had been questioned. Flume experiments with 
appropriate equipment can serve as a suitable tool for the 
reconstruction of surface development theories taking into 
account several landscape forming processes simultaneously.
