Vulnerability to Dams of the Last Undammed Large Rivers of Southeast Asia

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The vast majority of large Eurasian rivers are regulated by hydropower dams, but some have survived as free‐flowing rivers so far in the Arctic and along stretches of the Myanmar coast. There, the Ayeyarwady (Irrawaddy) and Salween Rivers, two of the largest rivers of Southeast Asia, provide a huge amount of sediment, nurturing floodplains and

The Benefit Analysis for Different Layers of Grass Vegetation Reducing Surface Runoff and Sediment Yield

open access: yesShuitu baochi yanjiu, 2005
Research on benefits for reducing surface runoff and sediment by different layers of grass vegetation is important to assess the role for grass vegettaion controlling soil erosion.The simulated rainfall experiment is used to quantify benefits for ...

Identification of initial vegetation and habitat changes in small temperate fens using remote sensing

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Temperate fens with only incipient, subtle signs of deterioration can be reliably identified using Sentinel‐2 and aerial imagery, which sensitively detect early productivity‐related structural changes. Abstract Small temperate fens rank among the most endangered habitats in temperate Europe.

Environmental Stressors Influence Spatial Complexity in a Fluvial Macrophyte meadow

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This research investigates the nonlinear relationships between environmental stressors and the fine‐scale spatial complexity of a fluvial macrophytes meadow. The use of multivariate spatial analysis allowed us to identify two major environmental gradients (nutrients and light) and two major complexity gradients (related to abundance and fragmentation).

Hydrological dynamics and morphological physiognomies of Dzüdza River, Nagaland, India: A Geographical Information System‐based quantification of drainage morphometry

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract The assessment of the morphometric characteristics of the Dzüdza River basin in Nagaland has been critically important for hydrological analysis, flood risk assessment, soil erosion evaluation, and sustainable regional development, owing to its strategic location on the northern fringes of the Himalayas and flanked by hills to the east.
