Concepts of hydrological connectivity: Research approaches, pathways and future agendas [PDF]

open access: yesEarth-Science Reviews, 2013
For effective catchment management and intervention in hydrological systems a process-based understanding of hydrological connectivity is required so that: i) conceptual rather than solely empirical understanding drives how systems are interpreted; and ...

A new framework combining hydrological connectivity metrics and morphological spatial pattern analysis for the hydrological connectivity evaluation of wetlands

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, 2022
Abstract The quantitative evaluation of wetland hydrological connectivity is essential to the hydrological connectivity restoration-oriented ecological conservation and environmental management of wetlands. We proposed a framework to evaluate wetland hydrological connectivity with a combination of hydrological connectivity metrics and ...

Connectivity in hydrology and sediment dynamics

Land Degradation & Development, 2020
AbstractConnectivity has emerged as a significant conceptual framework for understanding the transfer of surface water and sediment through landscapes. The concept has been widely adopted in the field of catchment hydrology but has also been valuable to investigate rates of soil erosion by water and sediment export across landscapes.

Directional connectivity in hydrology and ecology

Ecological Applications, 2012
Quantifying hydrologic and ecological connectivity has contributed to understanding transport and dispersal processes and assessing ecosystem degradation or restoration potential. However, there has been little synthesis across disciplines. The growing field of ecohydrology and recent recognition that loss of hydrologic connectivity is leading to a ...

Thick roots and less microaggregates improve hydrological connectivity

Chemosphere, 2021
Due to human activity and global climate change, the Yellow River Delta, the youngest delta wetland in China, is suffering serious degradation. The study of hydrological connection provides new perspectives and technical support for the protection and restoration of delta wetlands. To quantify the interaction between the hydrological connection and the

Connectivity as a concept for characterising hydrological behaviour

Hydrological Processes, 2008
Received 27 October 2008 Accepted 27 October 2008 Introduction In recent years, an increasing number of studies have referred to the concept of ‘connectivity’ in an attempt to explain hydrological (Western et al., 2001), geomorphological (Brierly et al., 2006) and ecological (Pringle, 2003) systems.

Connectivity and hydrological efficiency dynamics at active volcanoes, Mexico

Science of The Total Environment, 2020
Connectivity is an emergent property that describes how complex topography favors or impedes sediment transfer processes. In active volcanic areas, high connectivity may lead to extremely efficient processes, such as lahars. The aim of the present study is to examine the behavior (activation-deactivation) of sub-basins affected by volcanic and ...

Effects of Surface Microtopography on Hydrologic Connectivity

World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2012, 2012
Land surface is generally not smooth. The existence of puddles breaks the continuity of various hydrologic features/properties. The spatial connectivity of topographic surfaces has significant influence on a series of hydrologic and geomorphologic processes and results in localized and independent hydrologic mass balance.
