Hydrologic Connectivity and Secondary Channel Habitat Properties of the Lower Mississippi River, a Large, Meandering River in the Southern USA

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In large, meandering rivers, much of the instream flow veers around islands through secondary channels (SCs), which often comprise a substantial proportion of a river's longitudinal path. Due to their dissimilar hydrological conditions, within and among themselves and to the main channel (MC), SCs augment habitat diversity and biogeochemical ...
