Forensic Hydraulic Analysis of Floodplain Connectivity Driven by Historical Beaver Dams in Colorado Headwater Streams

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As ecosystem engineers, beavers (Castor canadensis) modify river corridor form through dam building. When beavers are removed from a river corridor, their unmaintained dams wash out, altering the stream's hydrologic regime. The assumption that beaver dams increase floodplain connectivity is frequently presumed but has not been directly ...

River Ice Processes Modelling: A Comprehensive Review

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT River ice strongly influences hydrology, hydrodynamics, and ecosystems in cold regions, with an impact on flooding, hydropower generation, navigation, and aquatic habitats. Modeling river ice processes is therefore essential for both scientific understanding and operational management.

Seepage and deformation characteristics of sliding-zone soils under cyclic seepage pressure

Numerous incidents and failures of landslides in reservoir areas are attributed to water level fluctuations, which frequently induce cyclic changes in seepage pressure within the soil masses.

Too Hot, Too Cold, Just Right: Thermal Modulating Capacity of Different Sources of Groundwater Discharge to Salmon‐Bearing Streams

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Groundwater discharge plays a key role in maintaining habitat suitability for cold‐water fish by generating streamflow and modulating temperatures. However, the thermal influence depends on groundwater source depth and how far groundwater travels from the point of discharge to a receiving stream.

Water Losses and Environmental Efficiency in Urban Water Supply Systems: A Comparative Assessment for Spain and Portugal

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water losses are a critical environmental and operational challenge, especially in regions exposed to increasing water stress. This study assesses the environmental productivity of municipal water supply services in Spain and Portugal during the period 2014–2022, explicitly treating losses as an undesirable output.

Secure Enough? Sufficiency and Security in the New Geological and Geopolitical Reality

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article advances sufficiency theorizing by examining its relationship with security in the contemporary geopolitical context. It engages three contextually situated discourses: sustainable development, ecological civilization, and degrowth, to explore how concerns over ecological limits intersect with emerging geopolitical and security ...
