Seasonal surface drainage of sloping farmland : a review of its hydrogeomorphic impacts [PDF]
The combination of runoff-generating areas (saturated soils) and overland flow concentration in features such as drainage ditches makes sloping farmland vulnerable to soil erosion.

BOD5 dynamics in three vertical layers in free-water surface wetlands
This paper introduces a first-order variable residence time (VART) model, the so-called BOD-VART model, to estimate the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) in built wetlands with a free-water surface.

Influence of drainage status on soil and water chemistry, litter decomposition and soil respiration in central Amazonian forests on sandy soils [PDF]
Central Amazonian rainforest landscape supports a mosaic of tall terra firme rainforest and ecotone campinarana, riparian and campina forests, reflecting topography-induced variations in soil, nutrient and drainage conditions.

Foamed emulsion drainage: flow and trapping of drops [PDF]
Foamed emulsions are ubiquitous in our daily life but the ageing of such systems is still poorly understood. In this study we investigate foam drainage and measure the evolution of the gas, liquid and oil volume fractions inside the foam.

Tracer Measurements in Growing Sea Ice Support Convective Gravity Drainage Parameterizations [PDF]
Gravity drainage is the dominant process redistributing solutes in growing sea ice. Modeling gravity drainage is therefore necessary to predict physical and biogeochemical variables in sea ice.

Influence of subglacial drainage system evolution on glacier surface motion: Haut Glacier d'Arolla, Switzerland [PDF]
The relationship between the evolution of subglacial drainage system morphology and spatial patterns of glacier surface velocity was investigated using dye tracing experiments and ground surveying throughout the 1995 melt season at Haut Glacier d'Arolla,
