River-floodplain interactions: nutrient concentrations in the Lower Paraná River [PDF]

Fundamental and Applied Limnology, 1998
Changes in water chemistry along the lower 500 km stretch of the Parana River were assessed. The water composition of the river and of a representative floodplain marsh were compared. Short-term changes in nutrient concentrations were monitored in marsh enclosures filled with river water in order to simulate the nutrient dynamics under floodplain ...

Analyzing the discharge regime of a large tropical river through remote sensing, ground-based climatic data, and modeling [PDF]

, 1996
This study demonstrates the potential for applying passive microwave satellite sensor data to infer the discharge dynamics of large river systems using the main stem Amazon as a test case.

Impacts of river engineering on river channel behaviour : implications for managing downstream flood risk [PDF]

, 2020
Although knowledge of sediment transport has improved over the last 25 years, our understanding of bedload transfer and sediment delivery is still based on a limited set of observations or on models that make assumptions on hydraulic and sediment ...

Patterns in fish assemblages in the Loire floodplain: the role of hydrological connectivity and implications for conservation [PDF]

, 2007
Hydrological connectivity is known to determine biodiversity patterns across large river floodplains, but it is often greatly altered by human activities.

River-floodplain connectivity and residence times controlled by topographic bluffs along a backwater transition

Frontiers in Water
The morphology of river levees and floodplains is an important control on river-floodplain connectivity within a river system under sub-bankfull conditions, and this morphology changes as a river approaches the coast due to backwater influence ...

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Geological processes shaping freshwater biodiversity: a synthesis of global evidence

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent genomic data highlight the key roles of geological processes in shaping the diversification and biogeography of freshwater lineages. Specifically, physical processes such as tectonic uplift, erosion, glaciation, lake formation, and sea‐level fluctuation contribute extensively to the evolution of biotic diversity within and among ...
