Emergent Headwater Types for Watershed Monitoring, Research, and Planning
Abstract Headwaters—that is headwater streams and the watersheds they drain—strongly influence water quality, ecosystem services, and hydrologic connectivity, yet remain poorly mapped, monitored, and understood at large spatial scales. Using available spatial data to classify headwater “types” could therefore enhance the utility of sparse monitoring ...

Emergent Regimes of River Meandering and Permafrost Extent in Arctic Floodplains
Abstract Permafrost in Arctic floodplains impacts carbon stores, ecosystems, and infrastructure, yet the processes controlling its distribution remain poorly constrained. Here we present a numerical model for the coupled evolution of river meandering and floodplain permafrost that captures the competition between bank erosion and permafrost growth.

Abstract Poyang Lake, China's largest floodplain lake, plays a crucial role in regional hydrology by seasonally regulating water to mitigate floods and sustain extensive wetland ecosystems. However, complex hydrodynamics and significant spatial hydraulic gradients often invalidate the traditional “flat‐water” assumption, making reliable estimation of ...

Abstract Soil health underpins crop productivity and sustainability, but current soil health assessment frameworks struggle to balance global standardization with regional dynamic ecological realism. Indicators vary widely across soils and climates, often leading to one‐size‐fits‐all thresholds that penalize producers in inherently low‐capacity soils ...

ABSTRACT Environmental integrity is vital for the long‐term preservation of freshwater biodiversity, which is currently among the most threatened on Earth due to anthropogenic pressures such as dam construction. The present study investigated the temporal responses of ostracod communities over 8 years (2017–2024) in the Upper Paraná River floodplain ...

ABSTRACT River ecosystems are increasingly vulnerable to intensified human pressures associated with population growth and rising living standards, leading to structural changes and altered ecosystem service (ES) provision. The lower course of the Hrazdan River (Armenia) exemplifies these impacts, as it flows through Yerevan, the capital city, and ...
