How can the Lateral Profile of Velocity Be Predicted on a Sloping Riverbank With Vegetation?
Abstract Riverbanks have laterally sloping banks and are favorable environments for aquatic vegetation. A vegetated sloping bank alters the lateral profile of streamwise velocity across the entire channel. However, the impacts of flow, vegetation and side sloping banks on the velocity profile are unclear, and predicting the velocity profile on a ...

Abstract Riparian landscapes support biodiverse and productive ecosystems that in turn provide valuable services like water filtration and flood attenuation. Extensive anthropogenic modifications to riparian environments have altered natural water connectivity patterns important for ecosystem health, leading to an increased effort to understand and ...

ABSTRACT The article investigates how Indigenous labour interacts with powerful sediment movements and flooding cycles in 23 riverine communities in Bolivian Amazonia. These interactions, we argue, transcend the binary between human labour and biophysical processes in shaping flux urban political ecologies, landscapes and human settlements that ...

ABSTRACT Aims Artificial waterbodies are widely recognized as vital habitats for waterfowl conservation, particularly in the Mediterranean region, where natural lentic ecosystems have suffered extensive loss and degradation. Man‐made reservoirs represent the widespread and relatively deep artificial bodies of water and are often assumed to harbour poor
