Interactions between groundwater and surface water at river banks and the confluence of rivers [PDF]

, 2004
Riparian vegetation depends on hydrological resources and has to adapt to changes in water levels and soil moisture conditions. The origin and mixing of water in the streamside corridor were studied in detail.

Asymmetric Responses of Ecosystem Health to Urbanization in a Typical Karst City: Spatiotemporal Patterns and Driving Mechanisms in Guilin, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban expansion can substantially reshape ecosystem structure and functioning, especially in ecologically fragile Karst landscapes. Clarifying how ecosystem health (EH) responds to urbanization and identifying the factors that drive spatial variation in EH are important for regional sustainability.

Compounding effect of meandering degree and vegetation density on hyporheic residence time in riparian zone

Shui kexue jinzhan, 2020
Hyporheic linkages between riparian zones and stream channels are a key component to riparian and stream system, which greatly influence the solutes transportation and transformation that are fundamental to sustaining biogeochemical cycling, biological ...

Nitrogen dynamics in the shallow groundwater of a riparian wetland zone of the Garonne, SW France: nitrate inputs, bacterial densities, organic matter supply and denitrification measurements [PDF]

, 2003
This study highlights the role of interactions between surface and sub-surface water of the riparian zone of a large river (the Garonne, SW France). Information is given about the role of surface water in supplying Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC ) to the

) fluxes in permanent upslope pasture and downslope riparian buffers with varying vegetation

, 2023
Background Riparian buffers are primarily implemented for their water quality functions in agroecosystems. Their location in the agricultural landscape allows them to intercept and process pollutants from immediately adjacent agricultural land. Vegetated

Native Perennial Vegetation Buffer Strips Improve Structural Indicators of Riparian Protection in Mediterranean Agroecosystems

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riparian zones in Mediterranean agroecosystems are highly vulnerable to degradation because cultivation often reaches stream edges and annual vegetation senesces during the late‐summer dry period, leaving soils exposed when the first erosive autumn rains occur.

A Machine Learning Approach for Mapping Forest Vegetation in Riparian Zones in an Atlantic Biome Environment Using Sentinel-2 Imagery

Remote Sensing, 2020
Riparian zones consist of important environmental regions, specifically to maintain the quality of water resources. Accurately mapping forest vegetation in riparian zones is an important issue, since it may provide information about numerous surface ...

Mechanisms and impacts of future plant invasions: research agendas and management needs under disruptive social‐ecological change scenarios

Oikos, EarlyView.
No‐analogue futures are characteristic of the Anthropocene, but how global change, and societies' responses, will affect plant invasions remains unclear. Conducting research now to address future needs is crucial for guiding invasion management and policy.

Vegetation extraction in riparian zones based on UAV visible light images and marked watershed algorithm

Frontiers in Earth Science
The riparian zone is an area where land and water are intertwined, and vegetation is rich and complexly distributed. The zone can be directly involved in ecological regulation.

Some love them, others hate them: Understanding farmers' tree planting decisions in Scotland

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Agroforestry is increasingly recognized as a sustainable agricultural land use system with potential to sequester carbon, create and repair habitats, enhance biodiversity and offer environmental and socio‐economic benefits, including improved agricultural productivity.
