Large Wood Retention in Forested River Corridors During Overbank Flood Events: Insights From Flume Experiments

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Understanding large wood (LW) dynamics on floodplains is important for closing wood budgets and predicting hazards associated with LW. We conducted 38 experiments in a fixed‐bed flume to examine how forest stand density (FSD), wood transport regime, and overbank flood magnitude affect floodplain LW retention.

Floodplain environmental change during the younger dryas and holocene: Evidence from the lower kennet valley, south central England [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Many lowland rivers across northwest Europe exhibit broadly similar behavioural responses to glacial-interglacial transitions and landscape development. Difficulties exist in assessing these, largely because the evidence from many rivers remains limited

Extending the MMMT Temporal Change Detection Tool to Assess Significant Shifts in Diverse Environmental Datasets

open access: yesJAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines applications of the visual modified Mood's median test (MMMT) tool, which was originally developed for assessing temporal changes in streamflow regimes, to assess changes in a broader range of critically important environmental variables.

Variations in downslope activity and bottom current dynamics in a land‐detached submarine channel system since the Last Glacial Maximum

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 620-644, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The Gollum Channel System is a land‐detached large‐scale canyon‐channel system situated offshore southwest Ireland on the Northeast Atlantic margin. The system has been considered inactive with downslope gravity flows since the last glacial period, but geophysical data in some of its branches do suggest Holocene activity.

The making of pure quartzose sand in continental interiors: Paraná River (Brazil and Argentina)

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 802-837, April 2026.
ABSTRACT As part of a comprehensive project on sedimentary processes in South America, this study focuses on sediment generation in the intracratonic Paraná Basin and monitors the evolution of sand composition along the Paraná River from central Brazil to the Río de la Plata estuary in Argentina.

Characterizing Landslide‐Induced Floods Using the SWOT Mission: A Case Study on the Chilcotin River, Canada

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Monitoring small rivers during extreme events is challenging, especially in remote areas. This study assesses the accuracy of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission in characterizing an extreme hydrological event on a narrow river (∼60 m wide), using a landslide‐induced flood on the Chilcotin River (Canada) as a case study.
