Hyporheic exchange processes of pore-scale microplastics
The transport of microplastics in the hyporheic zone remains poorly understood with few studies attempting to quantify microplastic hyporheic exchange processes. A laboratory scale erosimeter was utilized in combination with fluorometric techniques to experimentally quantify the dispersion of 3D pore-scale microplastics across the hyporheic zone ...

Engineered Gravel Trench Hyporheic Exchange to Create Cold‐Water Thermal Refuges
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.

Regulation-Structured Dynamic Metabolic Model Provides a Potential Mechanism for Delayed Enzyme Response in Denitrification Process [PDF]
In a recent study of denitrification dynamics in hyporheic zone sediments, we observed a significant time lag (up to several days) in enzymatic response to the changes in substrate concentration.

Hyporheic exchange leads to the transfer of gases, solutes, and fine particles across the sediment‐water interface, playing a critical role in biogeochemical cycles and pollutant transport in aquatic environments.

ABSTRACT Low‐tech process‐based stream restoration (LTPBR) is increasingly implemented following wildfire, underscoring the need to evaluate restoration outcomes in burned catchments. To help address this need, we measured abiotic and biotic characteristics of a reach that received LTPBR, an untreated reach, and a reach with relict beaver activity that

Increasing Streambed Permeability Around Vertical Steps to Enhance Hyporheic Exchange
In‐stream structures can be used to promote hyporheic exchange, that is, the exchange of water and solutes between the stream and the underlying streambed.

A numerical tool to integrate biophysical diversity of a large regulated river: hydrobiogeochemical bases. The case of the Garonne River (France) [PDF]
This article presents the bases of a hydrobiogeochemical model of the Garonne River (southwest France) which has been developed to integrate physical and biological processes during summer low-water periods. The physical part of this model is composed of

Strategies for Assessing Post‐Wildfire Geomorphic Resilience in Semiarid Rivers
ABSTRACT We review and summarize diverse components of a catchment that can be monitored after wildfire to assess the geomorphic resilience of the river corridor in semiarid regions. We distinguish upland portions of river catchments from river corridors.

The influence of in-stream structures on temperature dynamics via induced hyporheic exchange
In-stream restoration structures, such as woody weirs, are intended to enhance hyporheic exchange, thus altering temperature dynamics in restored reaches. However, the relative effects of various in-stream structure types and streambed settings (i.e. the

Fragmentation of the Hyporheic Zone Due to Regional Groundwater Circulation
By use of numerical modeling and field observations, this work quantified the effects of catchment‐scale upwelling groundwater on the hyporheic (below stream) fluxes over a wide range of spatial scales.
