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,

ABSTRACT Rapid expansion in the availability of data derived from ground, airborne, and satellite remote sensing, and numerical modeling applications is transforming river science and management practices. This digital revolution has the potential to catalyze the uptake of a riverscapes approach to deliver proactive and adaptive management practices ...

Cascading consequences of structural interventions in a tropical wandering gravel‐bed river
Abstract Riverscapes are often modified and managed through ‘command and control’ structural engineering approaches. These structures not only alter flow and sediment transport patterns but also negatively affect riverscape biodiversity. These impacts are particularly acute for rivers that are characterised by high mobility and wide flow distribution ...

Abstract Post‐fire debris flows alter impacted fluvial systems, but few studies quantify the magnitude and timing of reach‐scale channel response to these events. In August 2020, the Big Creek watershed along California's central coast burned in the Dolan Fire; in January 2021, an atmospheric river event triggered post‐fire debris flows in steep ...

A historical flood generated 32 splays covering 1,438 ha along a 122 km reach of the braided lower Platte River. 94% of the splays were bank‐top splays deposited on abandoned braid channels presently cultivated for row crops. Splays pose an increasing hazard as rain‐on‐snow floods are becoming more common in the central USA.

The Schöttlbach catchment recorded two major flood events in July 2011 and August 2017. On the basis of reports, geomorphic mapping and the analysis of multi‐temporal LiDAR datasets, we tried to analyse the impacts on the local geomorphic system and constructed an event‐scaled sediment budget for the 2017 event. Abstract Extreme precipitation events in

Coupling remote sensing and field measurements with tools for biomass and geomorphological changing mapping and hydrodynamic modelling. Abstract In recent decades, fluvial geomorphology and ecohydraulic research have extensively used field observations, remote sensing or hydrodynamic modelling to understand river systems.

Abstract The Coast of Louisiana is affected by accelerating sea level rise compounded by land subsidence, leading to land loss. Vertical crustal motions in the region are caused by natural and anthropogenic processes that vary temporally and spatially across the Gulf of Mexico. We investigate the role of growth faulting contributions to subsidence in a
