Quantitative evaluation of sea reclamation activities on tidal creek connectivity

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Deltas are in a dynamic balance due to the impact of fluvial and coastal flooding, and hydrological connectivity plays an important role. In recent decades, the dynamic equilibrium has been influenced by upstream and local human activities, including sea

Avaliando a interrupção da conectividade longitudinal em assembleias de macroinvertebrados em um rio semi-árido [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Aim: Our aim in this study was evaluate the effects of flow regulation for irrigation on the macroinvertebrate assemblages in a semiarid river. Methods:We sampled two reaches in Dulce River; one placed upstream a weir that diverts flow into a network of ...

How Hydrologic Connectivity Regulates Water Quality in River Corridors

open access: yesJAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, 2018
AbstractDownstream flow in rivers is repeatedly delayed by hydrologic exchange with off‐channel storage zones where biogeochemical processing occurs. We present a dimensionless metric that quantifies river connectivity as the balance between downstream flow and the exchange of water with the bed, banks, and floodplains.

A new approach for measuring surface hydrological connectivity [PDF]

open access: yesHydrological Processes, 2019
AbstractThe development of surface hydrological connectivity is a key determinant of flood magnitude in drylands. Thresholds in runoff response may be reached when isolated runoff‐generating areas connect with each other to form continuous links to river channels, enabling these areas to contribute to flood hydrographs.

Twenty years of dynamic occupancy models: a review of applications and look to the future

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Since their introduction over 20 years ago, dynamic occupancy models (DOMs) have become a powerful and flexible framework for estimating species occupancy across space and time while accounting for imperfect detection. As their popularity has increased and extensions have further expanded their capabilities, DOMs have been applied to increasingly ...

High-temporal resolution fluvial sediment source fingerprinting with uncertainty: a Bayesian approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This contribution addresses two developing areas of sediment fingerprinting research. Specifically, how to improve the temporal resolution of source apportionment estimates whilst minimizing analytical costs and, secondly, how to consistently quantify ...

Toward capturing hydrologically significant connectivity in spatial patterns [PDF]

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2001
Many spatial fields exhibit connectivity features that have an important influence on hydrologic behavior. Examples include high‐conductivity preferred flow paths in aquifers and saturated source areas in drainage lines. Connected features can be considered as arbitrarily shaped bands or pathways of connected pixels having similar (e.g., high) values ...

From shadows to data: first robust population assessment of snow leopards in Pakistan

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The snow leopard Panthera uncia is a flagship species of the greater Himalayan region and symbolizes the integrity of this ecological system. Within the greater Himalayas, Pakistan holds special significance as the north of the country represents a confluence of three major mountain ranges (Hindu Kush, Pamir–Karakoram, and Himalaya).

Evaluating the impact of roof rainwater harvesting on hydrological connectivity and urban flood mitigation

open access: yesResults in Engineering
Urban flooding, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions, has become a growing concern in densely populated metropolitan areas. Roof rainwater harvesting is a form of low impact development that offers an effective solution for mitigating urban ...

Flood impacts on urban road connectivity in southern China

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Effective measures to improve road accessibility during storms are required as traffic congestion caused by storm floods increasingly constrains the efficiency of urban commuting.
