Environmental Chemistry Letters, 2022 The successive lockdowns of the coronavirus 2019 pandemic have substantially increased citizens will to escape from the city and seek out nature for walking, cycling, swimming and other health-enhancing activities. While the heatlh benefits of bathing in natural rivers is empirically known since ancient times, wild swimming is actually booming as never

Patents and Competition in the Automobile Industry [PDF]
, 1948 Methane (CH4) fluxes from world rivers are still poorly constrained, with measurements restricted mainly to temperate climates. Additional river flux measurements, including spatio-temporal studies, are important to refine extrapolations.

Riverism: river + urbanism [PDF]
IX Seminario Internacional de Investigación en Urbanismo, Barcelona-Bogotá, Junio 2017, 2017 La investigación abarca la relación simbiótica del urbanismo con los ecosistemas de agua, el habitar de los bordes hidráulicos, la redefinición de los entornos urbanos de ciudad con el río y la recualificación de su espacio público en cuatro ejemplos de aproximaciones urbanas y habitables en Colombia.

Anthropogenic Transformation and the Possibility of Renaturalising Small Rivers and their Valleys in Cities – Łódź and Lviv Examples [PDF]
, 2015 Rivers used to serve important functions in the development of cities, and river valleys are a part of the urban space. Regardless of several centuries of anthropogenic influences large rivers and their valleys have remained the dominant elements of the ...

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2012 River history is reflected in the nature of the sediments carried and deposited over time. Using examples drawn from around the world, this account illustrates how river sediments have been used to reconstruct past environmental changes at a variety of scales in time and space. Problems arising from a patchy alluvial record and from influences external

Endocrine disruption in juvenile roach from English rivers: A preliminary study [PDF]
, 2004 Juvenile roach Rutilus rutilus from seven rivers of varying water quality were examined for evidence of endocrine disruption. The majority of roach from five of these rivers had femalelike reproductive ducts.

Investigating periphyton biofilm response to changing phosphorus concentrations in UK rivers using within-river flumes [PDF]
, 2010 The excessive growth of benthic algal biofilms in UK rivers is a widespread problem, resulting in loss of plant communities and wider ecological damage.

Braided Rivers and Superconducting Vortex Avalanches
, 1999 Magnetic vortices intermittently flow through preferred channels when they are forced in or out of a superconductor. We study this behavior using a cellular model, and find that the vortex flow can make braided rivers strikingly similar to aerial ...

Quarterly of Applied Mathematics, 2008 The existence of solutions describing the turbulent flow in rivers is proven. The existence of an associated invariant measure describing the statistical properties of this one-dimensional turbulence is established. The turbulent solutions are not smooth but Hölder continuous with exponent 3 / 4 3/4
