Replacement of Cakile edentula with Cakile maritima in New South Wales and on Lord Howe Island
Two species of Cakile (Brassicaceae) have been introduced to Australia and the genus has been a common feature on the beaches of NSW for over 130 years; Cakile edentula has been present for at least 148 years (in NSW since about 1870), while Cakile ...

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 ...

River‐Scale Evaluation of a Floating LED Light Array for Behavioral Guidance of American Eel
ABSTRACT Exploiting the sensory physiology of migratory fishes to guide them away from hazards like hydroelectric turbines is of interest to regulatory agencies and hydropower operators to achieve conservation and management goals. Here we describe a river‐scale experiment where out‐migrating adult American eel (Anguilla rostrata) were tracked ...

ABSTRACT Florida's regulatory framework requires the establishment of minimum flows to protect aquatic ecosystems and water resources from significant harm. One of the primary methods used to evaluate significant harm is assessment of instream habitat, which relies on Habitat Suitability Criteria (HSC) curves that relate flow regimes and habitat ...

Study on the Characteristics of Tidal Current Velocity in Estuarine and Bay Areas
Abstract In estuarine and bay regions, reciprocating tidal currents frequently constitute the predominant hydrodynamic forces. Nonetheless, there exists a paucity of research concerning the hydrodynamic characteristics under intricate tidal conditions.

Sea level and currents in the upper reaches of the Cochin estuarine system during October 2000
155-163Data on sea level, currents, salinity and water temperature collected in the upper reaches of the Cochin estuarine system (southwest coast of India) during October 2000 have been analysed to understand their variability.

ABSTRACT Post‐flood riparian vegetation recovery demands significant attention; however, the complexity of traditional remote sensing methods often hinders environmental managers from implementing rapid vegetation monitoring. This paper developed a model using a Deep Learning Model within ArcGIS to classify and detect recovery of vegetation with high ...

Restoring Lateral Connectivity to Anthropogenic Riverscapes: Six Lessons From Stage Zero
ABSTRACT Centuries of river modification, particularly straightening and incision, have severely reduced lateral connectivity between rivers and their floodplains. As a result, Stage 0 riverscapes, characterised by high lateral connectivity (e.g., anastomosing or wetland riverscapes), are now rare in anthropogenic landscapes.

Abstract Optimizing reservoir refill operation rules is crucial for enhancing reservoir sustainability and resilience. This study proposes a refill operation model designed to derive optimal refill guide curves by considering flood risk prevention, maximum storage levels, and the combined benefits of hydropower generation and energy storage.

Effect of wave-current interaction on the hydrological environment in a shallow river estuary
Estuarine hydrodynamics, governing the interplay between riverine inputs, tidal currents, and coastal processes, are critical to understanding material transport, ecosystem dynamics, and anthropogenic impacts in transitional coastal zones.
