A limited overlap of interactions between the bacterial community of water and sediment in wetland ecosystem of the Yellow River floodplain [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 IntroductionAquatic ecosystems in floodplains provide homes for a variety of active bacterial populations. However, the coexistence pattern of bacterial communities of water and sediment in these ecosystems is unclear.MethodsIn the present study ...

Restoration potential for Danube River Basin, lower Danube and Mura Drava Danube Biosphere Reserve [PDF]
Scientific Annals of the Danube Delta Institute, 2013 Originally main Danube basin floodplains would cover an area of 26,500 km², which is equal to about 3.3% of the total catchment size. In recent history, 80% have been cut off by dikes and dams for flood control, hydropower generation, to improve ...

Application of Running Water-Type Retarding Basin to Old Kinu River Floodplain, Japan
Hydrology, 2023 In the upper and middle reaches of rivers in Japan, river channels used to meander in a comparatively narrow floodplain and heavy rain runoff used to naturally expand over the entire floodplain, retarding floods toward the downstream.

Linking Flow Regime, Floodplain Lake Connectivity and Fish Catch in a Large River-Floodplain System, the Volga-Akhtuba Floodplain (Russian Federation) [PDF]
, 2011 River-floodplain systems are amongst the most productive—but often severely impacted—aquatic systems worldwide. We explored the ecological response of fish to flow regime in a large river-floodplain system by studying the relationships between (1 ...
