What factors lead to a braided channel pattern?

The sediment load is large and the river gets confused and breaks up into smaller channels with a branching, but braided look.

A braided channel refers to one, which is differentiated into smaller channels by temporary islands known as eyots. These channels seem to form in rivers, which exhibits a steep profile, a substantial concentration of sedimentary load, and regular fluctuating discharges. The factors associated with the formation of the braided channel comprises a high stream gradient, an abundant supply of sediments, and frequent and rapid variations in water discharge.
