Wood restoration results in rapid conversion of a degraded plane‐bed channel, Little River, Washington

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
The authors document that wood restoration can rapidly and positively affect a number of geomorphic variables to improve habitat conditions for Pacific salmon. Abstract The loss of instream wood can create a legacy of channel incision that is detrimental to habitat formation.

Dam It, I’m Stranded: Evaluating Fish Stranding Downstream of Two Hydropeaking Dams in Northern Ontario

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 796-811, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Globally, there has been an increase in the development and use of hydropower to produce energy. Hydropeaking is an operating regime that is used to meet real‐time energy demands; however, daily fluctuations in flows may result in fish becoming stranded.

A Method to Implement Natural Flow Regimes for Regulated Rivers

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Rivers throughout the world have been dammed for flood control, irrigation, hydropower, and water storage for centuries. Dams service the economic and development needs of societies, but degrade the ecology of rivers. To conserve diminishing aquatic species and their habitats, methods are needed to help managers implement flow releases with ...

Comparative Analysis of Heat Exposure‐Induced Molecular Changes in Two Turtle Species with Contrasting Thermal Adaptations

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 21, Issue 3, Page 609-623, May 2026.
Protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum is highlighted in response to heat stress in Platysternon megacephalum. Under heat stress, the up‐regulation of genes such as CHOP in protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum pathway, along with the suppression of energy and lipid metabolism and the up‐regulation of JARID2 expression, leads to ...
