Forensic Hydraulic Analysis of Floodplain Connectivity Driven by Historical Beaver Dams in Colorado Headwater Streams

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As ecosystem engineers, beavers (Castor canadensis) modify river corridor form through dam building. When beavers are removed from a river corridor, their unmaintained dams wash out, altering the stream's hydrologic regime. The assumption that beaver dams increase floodplain connectivity is frequently presumed but has not been directly ...

River Ice Processes Modelling: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT River ice strongly influences hydrology, hydrodynamics, and ecosystems in cold regions, with an impact on flooding, hydropower generation, navigation, and aquatic habitats. Modeling river ice processes is therefore essential for both scientific understanding and operational management.

The Role of Energy Transition, Digitalization, and Green Goods in Material Footprints and Sustainability

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how green and non‐green goods, energy transition, digitalization, economic growth, and population affect the material footprint of G‐7 countries from 1990 to 2023. Using an extended STIRPAT framework, we show that green and non‐green goods increase material footprint, demonstrating the resource intensity associated with
