The importance of oxbow lakes in the floodplain storage of pollutants [PDF]
Geology, 2021 Abstract Oxbow lakes are important stores for fine-grained sediment, which potentially makes them critical sinks for sediment-associated pollutants. We leverage an exhaustive public archive of coring data, supplemented by our data collection, to provide a quantitative assessment of the role of oxbows as off-channel sinks. We investigated

Linking Flow Regime, Floodplain Lake Connectivity and Fish Catch in a Large River-Floodplain System, the Volga-Akhtuba Floodplain (Russian Federation) [PDF]
, 2011 River-floodplain systems are amongst the most productive—but often severely impacted—aquatic systems worldwide. We explored the ecological response of fish to flow regime in a large river-floodplain system by studying the relationships between (1 ...

Estimation of water volume in ungauged, dynamic floodplain lakes
Environmental Research Letters, 2020 Lakes play a crucial role in retaining water and altering biogeochemical processes on floodplains. Existing strategies and algorithms for estimation of water storage are insufficient for dynamic floodplain lakes due to the scarcity of available ...
