Effects of Sediment‐Control Operations on Fish and Macroinvertebrate Communities in Dam Reservoirs
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sediments are avoided in many river and dam managements because of their adverse effects on water usage and flood control. Recently, sedimentation control measures, including sluicing, have been employed to manage sediments in river channels and restore communities in dammed rivers.

Future changes in population exposure to snowfall extremes across Eurasia
River, EarlyView.Abstract Extreme snowfall events have frequently occurred across parts of Eurasia, causing substantial economic losses and severe societal impacts. As global warming intensifies, assessing its potential effect on population exposure to such extremes becomes increasingly crucial. This study employed CMIP6 model datasets and future population projections

Redistributive effects of unsteady flow regimes downstream of reservoirs
River, EarlyView.Abstract Understanding unsteady flow regimes in river channels downstream of a reservoir, is essential for predicting and regulating water level and flow velocity in the lower basin. Using hourly observations of discharge and water level at Xiangjiaba Station from 2018 to 2022, an evaluation indicator was proposed to analyze unsteady flow regimes ...
