Preferential retention of algal carbon in benthic invertebrates: Stable isotope and fatty acid evidence from an outdoor flume experiment. [PDF]
According to the River Continuum Concept, headwater streams are richer in allochthonous (e.g. terrestrial leaves) than autochthonous (e.g. algae) sources of organic matter for consumers.

Plant trait-mediated drag forces on seedlings of four tidal marsh pioneer species
Salt marshes play an important role in coastal protection by reducing the impact of waves and shoreline erosion risks. While mature vegetation is responsible for the persistence and stability of marsh ecosystems, seedling survival of pioneer species is ...

A flume experiment on critical flow conditions with gravel dunes
Gravel dunes are the typical form of bed load motion and one of the research focuses in river dynamics,which determines the bed resistance,the bed geometry and the bed load transport rate in alluvial rivers.Most previous studies focused on the fine ...

Flume experiments on vegetated alternate bars [PDF]
The planform morphology of a river reach is the result of the combined actions of sediment motion (erosion, transport and deposition), hydrological regime, development and growth of vegetation. However, the interactions among these processes are still poorly understood and rarely investigated in laboratory flume experiments.

Geometry of Wave-Formed Orbital Ripples in Coarse Sand
Using new large-scale wave-flume experiments we examine the cross-section and planform geometry of wave-formed ripples in coarse sand (median grain size D50 = 430

How Fast or How Many? Sources of Intermittent Sediment Transport
Near the threshold of grain motion, sediment transport is “on‐off” intermittent, characterized by large but rare bursts separated by long periods of low transport.
