Soil CO2 emissions in cropland with fodder maize (Zea mays L.) with and without riparian buffer strips of differing vegetation [PDF]

, 2022
Vegetated land areas play a significant role in determining the fate of carbon (C) in the global C cycle. Riparian buffer vegetation is primarily implemented for water quality purposes as they attenuate pollutants from immediately adjacent croplands ...

Vulnerability of Riparian Vegetation to Catastrophic Flooding: Implications for Riparian Restoration

Restoration Ecology, 1997
AbstractIn this study, we examined the site‐specific effects of a large episodic flood on the riparian vegetation within the floodplain of the San Luis Rey River in southern California. Using multispectral airborne videography, we quantified percent cover of riparian vegetation, cultivated agricultural land, urban surfaces, upland vegetation, bare soil,

Linking soil nutrient cycling and microbial community with vegetation cover in riparian zone

, 2021
The riparian zone is a spatially fluctuating ecotone between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and has key ecological functions, due to specific geographic conditions and seasonal environmental changes.

Riparian Plant Evapotranspiration and Consumptive Use for Selected Areas of the Little Colorado River Watershed on the Navajo Nation

Remote Sensing, 2022
Estimates of riparian vegetation water use are important for hydromorphological assessment, partitioning within human and natural environments, and informing environmental policy decisions.

Stochastic soil water dynamics of phreatophyte vegetation with dimorphic root systems [PDF]

, 2009
As the direct uptake of deep groundwater by vegetation may be essential in semiarid regions, we incorporated this process in stochastic root zone water balance models.

Responses of Typical Riparian Vegetation to Annual Variation of River Flow in a Semi-Arid Climate Region: Case Study of China’s Xiliao River

Land
In semi-arid basins, riparian vegetation is an important part of the river ecosystem. However, with the decrease in river runoff caused by human activities and the continuous changes in climate, riparian vegetation has gradually degraded. To identify the

RIPARIAN VEGETATION STATUS AND RATES OF WATER USE FROM SATELLITE DATA [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2012
Hydrology and water availability are key determinants of the health of riparian vegetation systems, and an understanding of the interactions between vegetation and hydrology is a prerequisite for the maintenance and improvement of these systems under ...

Sap flow and water transfer in the Garonne river riparian woodland, France : first results on poplar and willow [PDF]

, 2002
This work is the first attempt at using Granier sap sensors on Populus nigra, Populus x euramericana cv I45/51 and Salix alba for the monitoring of sap flows in an active floodplain over two consecutive years.

Importance of considering riparian vegetation requirements for the long-term efficiency of environmental flows in aquatic microhabitats [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2017
Environmental flows remain biased toward the traditional biological group of fish species. Consequently, these flows ignore the inter-annual flow variability that rules species with longer lifecycles and therefore disregard the long-term perspective ...

Assessing climate change impacts on Pacific salmon and trout using bioenergetics and spatiotemporal explicit river temperature predictions under varying riparian conditions.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Pacific salmon and trout populations are affected by timber harvest, the removal and alteration of riparian vegetation, and the resulting physical changes to water quality, temperature, and associated delivery of high-quality terrestrial prey.
