Avoiding the ‘One‐Size‐Fits‐All’ Trap in Policy‐Based Monitoring

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy‐based monitoring programmes often fail to yield the information required to assess and improve policies and plans. A dominant cause of this problem is the ‘one‐size‐fits‐all’ (OSFA) trap—a failure to recognise that several, complementary types of monitoring are required to support effective policy.

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

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
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 ...

Bias in Peak Flood Discharges: Are Our Bridges and Culverts Undersized?

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reliable methods for peak discharge predictions at ungaged locations are required for infrastructure design and floodplain management. For decades, a standard practice in the United States has been to utilize US Geological Survey regional regression equations (StreamStats) as a singular method. However, implementation of multiple methods, such

Efficient Data Assimilation Method for Optimizing Prediction of Flow Field and Sediment Transport in Open Channel

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurately predicting open‐channel flow under complex conditions remains a challenge. This study introduces a novel synergetic self‐adaptive data assimilation (DA) framework, using a proportional‐integral‐derivative (PID) controller to dynamically calibrate the bed roughness parameter ks in a shallow‐water equation model (via the momentum ...
