We systematically summarize how each scale dictates fundamental choices in design feature, manufacturing technology, driving mechanism, and control strategy, which are inherently governed by scale‐dominated physical principles. Furthermore, the application of scale‐determined operation modes of microrobots across different stages of medical ...

Engineered Gravel Trench Hyporheic Exchange to Create Cold‐Water Thermal Refuges
ABSTRACT Warming rivers are driving a loss or fragmentation of cold‐water habitat and providing the impetus to develop proactive thermal management approaches to maintain suitable habitat in rivers. One innovative approach is through the creation of cold‐water thermal refuges during periods of thermal stress for aquatic species.

ABSTRACT Knowledge of habitat availability is critically important for the management and recovery of freshwater species. Quantifying habitat availability often requires fine‐scale sampling at point‐based locations across a large geographic extent, which can be laboursome.

Using Fine Sediment Monitoring to Quantify Sand Loading Over Time
ABSTRACT Riverine sand loading can lead to geomorphic change, impacting river processes like lateral migration and vertical aggradation or degradation. Yet many sediment monitoring programs track only fine sediment measurable as total suspended solids (TSS). Here, we assess the ability for TSS data to be used to determine sand loading.

Strategies for Assessing Post‐Wildfire Geomorphic Resilience in Semiarid Rivers
ABSTRACT We review and summarize diverse components of a catchment that can be monitored after wildfire to assess the geomorphic resilience of the river corridor in semiarid regions. We distinguish upland portions of river catchments from river corridors.

ABSTRACT Salmonid fishes typically express anadromy. During their juvenile riverine emigration, their downstream movements can be inhibited by hydropower schemes that entrain fish in their intakes. Here, the riverine migration success of smolts of brown trout Salmo trutta (“trout smolt”) and Atlantic salmon Salmo salar smolts (“salmon smolt”) was ...

This study presents an end‐to‐end computer‐vision pipeline for monitoring fish migration using underwater video. We integrate field camera deployment, annotation, model training and automated in‐season counting to generate continuous, high‐resolution data on river herring spawning migration.

ABSTRACT Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been identified as a potential catalyst for a paradigm shift within the construction industry, due to its capacity to enhance sustainability, reduce waste, and augment design flexibility. This study presents a systematic literature review (SLR) that explores the application of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in ...
