Abstract Ecological restoration projects with diverse interest groups face the continual challenge of engaging values, goals and cultures that may vary greatly among partners. As part of an eco‐cultural, riparian restoration project led by the Northwestern Band of the Shoshone Nation, our research examines the instrumental, relational and intrinsic ...

Enhancing Climate Resilience Through Dam and Barrier Removal
Climate change alters the costs, benefits, and risks of dams. Removing obsolete and unsafe dams and barriers is a strategy for climate resilience. ABSTRACT Hydroclimate change is stressing dams and their management, altering the benefits, costs, and risks of built water infrastructure for people and the environment.

Velocity Field Characteristics at the Inlet to a Pipe Culvert [PDF]
Abstract A poorly designed culvert inlet structure causes scouring, which can lead to the collapse of the culvert and significant damage to the neighboring land. A set of laboratory tests was evaluated to examine velocity distribution at the culvert inlet.

THE AESTHETICS OF URBAN METABOLISM: Landscape, Design and the Politics of In/Visibility
Abstract In this article, we chart the evolving aesthetic contours of urban metabolism across London, focusing on the River Lea and Thamesmead to the north and south of the River Thames, respectively. We begin in the nineteenth century, when these two sites formed critical nodes within a new sewerage system that relegated the city's circulatory flows ...

In this study, we implanted transmitters into fishes to track their movements while culverts were installed and creeks were excavated to restore a mangrove forest. Results suggest that fish were not displaced during the restoration and they did not readily utilize the restored creeks once they were completed.

How Supply Networks Influence Sustainable Innovation: Evidence From Ghana's Public Works Procurement
ABSTRACT Recent environmental and sustainability standards in procurement increase short‐term production and operational costs to suppliers, which are often recouped by charging price premiums for innovative solutions. However, public buyers are less likely to pay such price premiums, resulting in a disincentive among suppliers to bid for innovation ...

Verification and Evaluation of Robotic Inspection of the Inside of Culvert Pipes
Public infrastructures, such as tunnels and bridges, are important for our daily life and their increased deterioration causes concern. Culvert pipes are installed underground below roads, and their damage has an impact on the function and integrity of infrastructures.
