Effects of Sediment‐Control Operations on Fish and Macroinvertebrate Communities in Dam Reservoirs

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sediments are avoided in many river and dam managements because of their adverse effects on water usage and flood control. Recently, sedimentation control measures, including sluicing, have been employed to manage sediments in river channels and restore communities in dammed rivers.

Multi‐objective optimization of reservoir refill operate considering energy storage and hydrological conditions

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract Optimizing reservoir refill operation rules is crucial for enhancing reservoir sustainability and resilience. This study proposes a refill operation model designed to derive optimal refill guide curves by considering flood risk prevention, maximum storage levels, and the combined benefits of hydropower generation and energy storage.

Redistributive effects of unsteady flow regimes downstream of reservoirs

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding unsteady flow regimes in river channels downstream of a reservoir, is essential for predicting and regulating water level and flow velocity in the lower basin. Using hourly observations of discharge and water level at Xiangjiaba Station from 2018 to 2022, an evaluation indicator was proposed to analyze unsteady flow regimes ...

Soil erosion responses to climate change in a tropical monsoon‐dominated river basin ‐ A geospatial perspective

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Climate change is projected to intensify soil erosion in the Chalakkudy River Basin, with bare lands and steep uplands emerging as the most vulnerable hotspots under high‐emission scenarios. Forested areas showed greater resistance to soil erosion, highlighting the importance of targeted soil conservation for sustainable watershed management in ...

Spatial heterogeneity in basin hydrology and hydropower potential: Implications for climate resilience and economic development in Nepal

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract Nepal's vast hydropower potential is central to its long‐term economic development; however, it exhibits pronounced spatial heterogeneity and is increasingly vulnerable to climate‐induced risks. This study employs an integrated, Basin‐scale analytical framework to evaluate the hydrological productivity and economic viability of major river ...
