Findings from a National Survey of Canadian perspectives on predicting river channel migration and river bank erosion

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 1787-1800, December 2024.
Abstract River bank erosion and river channel migration are geomorphic processes that can result in significant hazards when there are impacts to humans or infrastructure. Unlike flooding, there are limited national guidelines in Canada that provide recommendations on how to best assess riverine erosion hazards. Instead regional and local jurisdictions

Ecosystem services of irrigated and controlled drainage agricultural systems: A contemporary global perspective

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 1823-1837, November 2024.
Abstract Irrigated agriculture provides 40% of the world's crop‐based foods but often with a negative impact on the environment. It is important to recognize that in addition to providing food and fibre, irrigation and controlled drainage systems can be optimized to provide additional ecosystem services and mitigate climate change by using resources in

Combined use of physically based hydrological model and empirical models to improve parameterisation of erosion processes in a flash flood prone catchment

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 49, Issue 12, Page 3934-3948, 30 September 2024.
Estimation of erosion during flash floods using the physics‐based model MARINE is compared with two empirical models RUSLE and MUSLE. Simulations with MARINE show that events can be classified into those dominated by raindrop erosion and those dominated by shear stress erosion. The eroded volumes simulated by the three models are comparable, except for

A review of flash‐floods management: From hydrological modeling to crisis management

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 17, Issue 3, September 2024.
Abstract In a context of climate change, flash‐floods are expected to increase in frequency. Considering their devastating impacts, it is primordial to safeguard the exposed population and infrastructure. This is the responsibility of crisis managers but they face difficulties due to the rapidity of these events.
