Resilient Flow Regimes in the Rio Grande—Río Bravo Basin

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water is essential for human development and is an indispensable resource for economic activity and a country's growth. However, current water practices, along with increasing land‐use change, climate change, and agricultural practices, have significantly altered the hydrological cycle and water availability.

A Tool for Prioritizing Gravel Augmentation Reaches for Sediment Starved Rivers

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gravel augmentation is a widely used restoration technique used to improve habitat below dams, including salmonids spawning habitat. However, gravel augmentation can be cost‐prohibitive, and it is often unclear which stream segments have the highest potential to benefit spawning salmonids.

Strategies for Assessing Post‐Wildfire Geomorphic Resilience in Semiarid Rivers

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We review and summarize diverse components of a catchment that can be monitored after wildfire to assess the geomorphic resilience of the river corridor in semiarid regions. We distinguish upland portions of river catchments from river corridors.

Cameras do not always take a full picture: wolf activity patterns revealed by accelerometers versus road‐positioned camera traps

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Camera traps have become an increasingly popular non‐invasive alternative to animal‐attached devices for studying wildlife behaviour. This study compared wolf (Canis lupus) activity patterns derived from collar accelerometers and road‐positioned camera traps and revealed strong overall agreement but also important seasonal and diel mismatches between ...

Lacking data? No worries! How synthetic images can alleviate image scarcity in wildlife surveys: A case study with muskox (Ovibos moschatus)

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study investigates the integration of synthetic imagery, created with diffusion‐based models, to supplement limited training data and improve muskox (Ovibos moschatus) detection in zero‐shot (ZS) and few‐shot (FS) settings. ZS models detected more than 80% of muskoxen in real images, confirming the potential of synthetic data as a substitute for ...
