Engineered Gravel Trench Hyporheic Exchange to Create Cold‐Water Thermal Refuges
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Warming rivers are driving a loss or fragmentation of cold‐water habitat and providing the impetus to develop proactive thermal management approaches to maintain suitable habitat in rivers. One innovative approach is through the creation of cold‐water thermal refuges during periods of thermal stress for aquatic species.
