Evaluation of Human Impact on Sediment Dynamics in an Intensively Managed Agricultural Watershed Using Distributed Modeling

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT By altering hydrological and geomorphological processes at watershed scales, humans have substantially influenced the movement of sediment on Earth's surface. Despite widespread recognition of human impacts on erosion and deposition, few studies have assessed the magnitude of change in watershed‐scale sediment fluxes before and after the ...

Cold‐Water Thermal Refuge Enhancement and Creation for Salmonids: Successes, Failures, and Lessons Learned

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As rivers continue to warm due to climate change, there is an urgent need for coordinated approaches to enhance the thermal resiliency of riverscapes. Cold‐water refuges (CWRs) serve as critical habitats for temperature‐sensitive aquatic species, yet efforts to enhance or create these refuges often lack a unified framework, risking a ...

The geomorphology of humanity

open access: yesProceedings of the 33rd Romanian Geomorphology Symposium, 2017
For millennia, natural processes such as tectonic uplift, volcanic, climate, erosion, sediment transport and deposition have shaped the Earth surface. The Earth science community also started to consider biota as a geomorphological agent that has a role in shaping the Earth surface, even if at a different scale and magnitude than that of other major ...

A Process Based Modeling Approach to Assess Temperature Impacts of Riparian Vegetation Management in a Southwestern Wisconsin Trout Stream

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rising water temperatures driven by climate change threaten culturally and economically important salmonid fisheries throughout the Upper Midwest. Unsuitable thermal regimes degrade the effectiveness of habitat restoration projects in the region, thus strategies for mitigating peak summer stream temperatures are of interest to state and non ...

Andrean examples of mega-geomorphology themes [PDF]

open access: yes
Geomorphic (or physiographic) provinces have been a well known and useful method of regional landform classification for a century. Every earth scientist will recognize a phrase such as Appalachian Plateau or Southern Rocky Mountains as defining a ...

Navigating Shallow Streams: Effects of Changing Stream Water Depths on Outmigration of Endangered Coho Salmon

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Declining streamflow from water management and climate change threatens fish migration. In coastal California, USA, we evaluated the effects of receding streamflow on the seaward migration of juvenile Coho Salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) in four streams over 10 years (2010–2020).

Long Term Hydromorphological Changes in Two Swiss River Floodplains: Analyses of Historical Maps

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Freshwater ecosystems undergo greater changes than even the most affected terrestrial environments, primarily due to human modifications such as river channelization or dam construction. To counteract these impacts, freshwater restoration and re‐naturalization initiatives are being implemented internationally.
