A standardised method for measuring in situ denitrification in shallow aquifers: numerical validation and measurements in riparian wetlands [PDF]

, 2003
A tracer test to examine in situ denitrification in shallow groundwater by a piezometer with a packer system used bromide as a tracer of dilution and acetylene (10%) to block the denitrification process at the nitrous oxide stage.

Monitoring the Area Change in the Three Gorges Reservoir Riparian Zone Based on Genetic Algorithm Optimized Machine Learning Algorithms and Sentinel-1 Data

Remote Sensing, 2023
Riparian zones play a critical role in ecosystems. Accurately extracting the area of a riparian zone in open water is challenging due to human activities and climate change. This study used Sentinel-1 satellite data to investigate the capabilities of the

An analysis of the spatial and temporal changes in the Riparian zone of the Berg River in the vicinity of Hermon: implications for governance [PDF]

, 2013
Riparian zones broadly refer to the interface between terrestrial and aquatic systems. It is widely acknowledged that riparian zones provide a number of services including that of an ecological corridor for migration of animal species; a habitat; food ...

Improved Accuracy of Riparian Zone Mapping Using Near Ground Unmanned Aerial Vehicle and Photogrammetry Method

Remote Sensing, 2021
In agriculture-dominant watersheds, riparian ecosystems provide a wide array of benefits such as reducing soil erosion, filtering chemical compounds, and retaining sediments. Traditionally, the boundaries of riparian zones could be estimated from Digital

Microbial community and soil enzyme activities driving microbial metabolic efficiency patterns in riparian soils of the Three Gorges Reservoir

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Riparian zones represent important transitional areas between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Microbial metabolic efficiency and soil enzyme activities are important indicators of carbon cycling in the riparian zones. However, how soil properties and

Multitaxonomic diversity patterns along a desert riparian-upland gradient.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Riparian areas are noted for their high biodiversity, but this has rarely been tested across a wide range of taxonomic groups. We set out to describe species richness, species abundance, and community similarity patterns for 11 taxonomic groups (forbs ...

Comparing riparian buffer design classification data among watersheds representing Iowa landscapes

Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment, 2021
Riparian buffers can improve water quality, but watershed‐scale evaluations of riparian buffering opportunities are rare. A landscape discretization tool called riparian catchments, part of the Agricultural Conservation Planning Framework (ACPF) version ...

What are the effects of wooded riparian zones on stream temperature?

Environmental Evidence, 2012
Background Predicted increases in stream temperature due to climate change will have a number of direct and indirect impacts on stream biota. A potential intervention for mitigating stream temperature rise is the use of wooded riparian zones to increase ...

Characterizing riparian vegetation and classifying riparian extent using airborne laser scanning data

Ecological Indicators, 2023
Riparian areas are an integral component of the forest hydrologic system. However, systematic management and conservation of riparian vegetation remains a challenge when the extent and nature of riparian vegetation is not easily characterized.
