Long‐Term Effects of Low‐Drop Grade Control Structures on Channel Evolution in the Yazoo River Basin

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 3, Page 594-606, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Channel incision is a widespread problem, especially in river basins that have an extensive history of channel alterations. Because channel incision causes large ecological and economic consequences, the prevention of continued migration of headcuts, defined as a steep change in stream gradient over a short reach, has been the focus of many ...

Planning, Implementing, and Evaluating Stage 0 and Valley Bottom Restoration Projects: A Review With Lessons From the Grande Ronde Basin, USA

open access: yesWIREs Water, Volume 13, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Successful valley bottom restoration requires an understanding of current and historical conditions determining whether a reach can currently support a multi‐thread or meandering channel, an understanding of reference conditions to assist with design, clear objectives to evaluate design alternatives, and post‐project monitoring of success using a ...

Floodplain Conservation Versus Landscape Development—How to Tackle the Multifunctional Management Issue

open access: yesWIREs Water, Volume 13, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
The ability to perform a number of ecosystem functions is degraded by the inappropriate damming of agricultural floodplains (by levee construction) or by the continuous urban expansion, where flood protection is justified but at the cost of affecting the environmental stability of the wider landscape.

Chronological Study of Fluvial Terraces along the Jusu River, Eastern Korea

open access: yesKikan Chirigaku, 1993
A series of fluvial terraces is well developed along the Jusu River flowing into the eastern side of the Taebaek Mts., Korea. Among these terraces, the development of the most well-preserved lower terraces were examined in connection with the climatic and sea-level changes since Last Interglacial by an investigation into the deposits and longitudinal ...

Forest Structure and Maintenance Mechanisms of Montane Riparian Forests Under Extreme Snowfall in the Cool‐Temperate Zone of Western Fukushima, Japan

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 2, March 2026.
In extreme heavy snowfall environments (maximum snow depth of 5 m), dominant species such as Pterocarya rhoifolia and Aesculus turbinata exhibited different survival strategies—sprouting, dwarfing, and layering—compared to their tall forms in heavy snowfall areas (maximum 2 m).

Depositional Interplay Between the Ancestral Rocky Mountains and Ouachita–Marathon–Sonora Orogenies: Insights From Provenance Records in the Late Palaeozoic Marfa Basin, West Texas, USA

open access: yesBasin Research, Volume 38, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Provenance records from the late Palaeozoic Marfa Basin in West Texas reveal the transition from the Ancestral Rocky Mountains to the Ouachita–Marathon–Sonora orogenies during the early Permian in SW Laurentia. ABSTRACT The Marfa Basin in West Texas is a late Palaeozoic synorogenic depocenter associated with regional deformation linked to the Ancestral

Palaeochannels of the upper central Murray and lower Goulburn rivers, southeastern Australia

open access: yesJournal of Maps
Palaeochannel systems are characteristic of alluvial plains across large parts of the Australian continent, but their evolution and modes of formation are still only partly understood.

X‐ray computed tomography study of terrestrial analog cores in preparation for Mars sample return

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 405-426, March 2026.
Abstract Mars Sample Return (MSR) is expected to transform planetary science by providing unprecedented access to pristine Martian material. Initial characterization in the sample receiving facility (SRF) will rely on nondestructive techniques such as X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) to document the condition, distribution, and internal features of ...

The river Dniester valley: a long record of late-Cenozoic fluvial evolution within the Eastern Carpathian foreland and East European Platform margin

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science
The Dniester valley is a spectacular example of a degrading bedrock fluvial system at the contact between the East European platform and the Carpathian orogen. This study is based upon a combined lithofacies–architecture–morphological study.

Relationship among grain-size, plant communities, and fluvial and eolian processes in a piedmont of the central Andes in Argentina

open access: yesEcología Austral, 2003
The relationship among modern geomorphological processes, grain-size of surface sediments, and vegetation was analyzed in an alluvial fan in the piedmont of the Cordillera Frontal (Andes Mountains). Statistical parameters of grain-size distribution were
