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.

ABSTRACT Assessing spatial and temporal variability of clogging in gravel‐bed rivers is challenging because field methods typically rely on labor‐intensive measurements of fine‐sediment content, porosity, or hydraulic conductivity. Clogging is also highly dynamic, driven by hydro‐sedimentary conditions; yet few studies have examined it at large scales ...

The Structure and Lifecycle of Stratified Mixing by Shear Instabilities in Continuously Forced Flows
Abstract The turbulent energy cascade of ocean mixing remains poorly understood at geophysically large Reynolds numbers (Re $\mathrm{R}\mathrm{e}$). Here we propose a new conceptual model for the structure of small‐scale mixing grounded in high‐resolution multibeam echosounding observations from the mouth of the Connecticut River, a shallow salt‐wedge ...
