Strategies for Assessing Post‐Wildfire Geomorphic Resilience in Semiarid Rivers

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We review and summarize diverse components of a catchment that can be monitored after wildfire to assess the geomorphic resilience of the river corridor in semiarid regions. We distinguish upland portions of river catchments from river corridors.

Potential Impacts of Low Flows on Fish Foodscapes and Production in a Braided River

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Changes in river discharge affect the physical composition and connectivity of habitats which, in turn, may shape the spatial distribution of fish food abundance, accessibility and quality—the ‘foodscape’—of river ecosystems. However, the influence of river flows on fish foodscapes has received very little attention from scientists. We studied

Evaluating land–sea linkages using land cover change and coral reef monitoring data: A case study from northeastern Puerto Rico

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Land cover change that leads to increased nutrient and sediment runoff is an important driver of change in coral reef ecosystems. In this study, we combined satellite remote sensing and field monitoring to assess concomitant changes in watershed land cover and coral cover in northeastern Puerto Rico in 2000–2015.

Composition characteristics and metal binding capacity of dissolved organic matter in the agriculture‐dominated Tuhai River

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract An essential part of river ecosystems, dissolved organic matter (DOM) has an enormous effect on the transport and variability of heavy metals. Nonetheless, our understanding of how the DOM affects heavy metal behavior in agricultural rivers remains limited. In this research, the DOM characteristics and effects on heavy metals (Cu2+, Zn2+, and

Propagation patterns of hydrological droughts in the source region of Yellow River: Insights from standardized versus threshold‐based approaches

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the propagation patterns of hydrological droughts is crucial for drought prevention, disaster mitigation, and water resource management. Two common methodological frameworks are employed: standardized indices, represented by the Standardized Streamflow Index (SSI), and threshold‐based (non‐standardized) indices, represented by ...
