Eroding Confidence in Gully Location Risk Prediction in Mine Pit Rehabilitation

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how rehabilitation measures, such as landform shaping, and surface finishes impact gully erosion risk could assist in designing less erosive rehabilitation. In this study we use high resolution digital elevation models of rehabilitated mine pits to explore risk factors for gully formation.

A Bioeconomic Analysis of a Wild Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) Recreational Fishery [PDF]

open access: yes
A biomass model of a wild salmon (Salmo salar) river recreational fishery is formulated, and the ways in which economic and biological conditions influence harvesting, stock size, profitability, and the benefit of the anglers are studied.

Within‐tree spatial heterogeneity of sap flow velocities and wood properties and its effect on the uncertainty of tree level sap flux estimates

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As forests are important for biodiversity and recreation and provide vital resources globally, it is essential that their health can be accurately monitored, for example, by using sap flow probes to measure tree water uptake. We investigated whether sap flow measurements might differ at various locations within the same tree due to variation in wood ...

How Tough a Passage? Nonnative Fish Entrainment Survivability at a Major Dam in the Western USA

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Colorado River downstream of Glen Canyon Dam (GCD) in the southwest USA demonstrates anthropogenic modification including altered flow and temperature regimes and established nonnative species in upstream reservoirs. Water overallocation and megadrought are contributing to new potential invasion pathways for nonnative fishes through dam ...
