Abstract There is a growing body of literature that suggests riverine fish are some of the most threatened taxa on a global scale. Similarly, the literature suggests less‐altered tributaries may offer refugia for large‐river specialists. The greater Mississippi River basin, including the Missouri River system, has been subjected to anthropogenic ...

Background In July 2021, destructive floods in Western Europe were triggered by enormous precipitation rates related to a low-pressure system named "Bernd." These catastrophic events led not only to major damage to infrastructure, severe economic losses,

Identifying Salt Marsh Shorelines from Remotely Sensed Elevation Data and Imagery
Salt marshes are valuable ecosystems that are vulnerable to lateral erosion, submergence, and internal disintegration due to sea level rise, storms, and sediment deficits.

Research and investigation of geology, mineral, and water resources of Maryland [PDF]
The authors have identified the following significant results. Field work in Baltimore County revealed that the signature returns of serpentinitic and nonserpentinitic rocks correlates with the vegetation cover and land use pattern. In Maryland Piedmont,

Quantitative analysis of channel characteristics of distributive fluvial systems
ABSTRACT Distributive fluvial systems (DFSs) are characterised by a radial distributive channel pattern in planform and dominate modern‐day sedimentary basins. Where aggradation occurs, such as in sedimentary basins, there is increased preservation potential, and therefore, DFSs are hypothesised to constitute a significant portion of the continental ...

ABSTRACT Understanding the processes that drive soil formation is crucial for developing sustainable land‐use strategies, as changing land‐use practices and climate change exacerbate soil erosion. The formation of substantial arable soils on carbonate bedrock requires substantial dust accretion as the underlying bedrock lacks siliciclastic material. In

Many fluvial systems have undergone significant changes in their morphology due to base level fall since the last glaciation. Channels in such transient fluvial systems continuously adjust their morphology and may still be incising until reaching a new ...

ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis
