We document meter‐scale antidune and cyclic‐step deposits in channel–lobe transition zone (CLTZ) deposits of the Upper Cretaceous Point Loma Formation in San Diego, California. These results provide new insights into sediment transport dynamics in CLTZ environments, which are critical for understanding reservoir connectivity and heterogeneity in ...

Mountain Riparian Zones as Refugia for Rare and Endangered Plants Under Climate Change
This study integrates Species Distribution Models and the InVEST model to project the distribution of 32 rare and endangered plants in the Irtysh River Basin under climate change. Results predict range contractions for 60% of species by 2050 and reveal that 80% of species currently fall outside protected areas, despite the role of mountains as climate ...

On the problem of indeterminacy in fluvial geomorphology
This thesis is concerned with the indeterminacy of morphology in alluvial river channel cross-section and river channel planform. Indeterminacy herein, is defined as the inability to determine the individual case at a given scale of measurement. In order

Pleistocene glaciations have shaped freshwater fish evolution and distribution patterns across North America. This study investigated the phylogeographical history of the Western Blacknose Dace (Rhinichthys obtusus) using mitochondrial genomic data, revealing three major clades that diverged 2–1.5 million years ago during Pleistocene glaciations when ...

ABSTRACT Once‐common beavers have been absent from the British landscape for centuries, but wild beaver populations have returned in recent years as part of reintroduction schemes, including releases into monitored enclosures. In North Yorkshire, such a release of Eurasian beavers took place in 2019.

Airborne LiDAR as a new tool for fluvial geomorphology
Detailed topographic data are important for both quantitative and qualitative fluvial studies. Topographic data available from traditional topographic maps are often not sufficiently accurate to detect, and map all relevant landform features. Moreover,

Creek‐imposed gradients reshape plant allometric traits and sediment retention in a salt marsh
Abstract Tidal creeks impose strong hydrological and geomorphic gradients that shape plant traits and sediment dynamics in salt marshes. However, how creek‐imposed gradients reorganize plant allometric strategies and how these trait shifts regulate sediment retention remain poorly quantified.

Conceptual framework showing how tectonic confinement, steep monsoon‐driven river dynamics, high‐energy coastal processes and offshore sediment dispersal together limit sediment retention at the Narmada–Tapi river mouths, suppressing sustained subaerial delta formation despite high sediment supply. Abstract Although deltaic growth is commonly linked to

The influence of ex‐tropical cyclones on marine terrace retreat
Ex‐tropical cyclones can damage the integrity of marine terrace structures and contribute to erosion, but they are sometimes too infrequent to explain the longer term erosion rates of coastlines. Abstract High magnitude events, like Ex‐Tropical Cyclones, are likely to change in their trajectory, magnitude, and frequency under future climate change ...

Interactions between fluvial geomorphology, riparian vegetation, and invasive alien woody species in the Tagliamento River, in North-Eastern Italy [PDF]
openBiogeomorphology, an emergence subdiscipline, recognizes the meaningful bidirectional interplay between biological communities and geomorphic processes.
