Evaluating Movements of Co‐Occurring Silver and Bighead Carp in a Small Missouri River Tributary

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Silver Carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and Bighead Carp Hypophthalmichthys nobilis commonly inhabit small tributaries of mainstem rivers. However, dynamic environmental conditions within these systems may influence their movement patterns differently than in larger rivers, potentially leading to important implications regarding their range ...

Avoiding the ‘One‐Size‐Fits‐All’ Trap in Policy‐Based Monitoring

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy‐based monitoring programmes often fail to yield the information required to assess and improve policies and plans. A dominant cause of this problem is the ‘one‐size‐fits‐all’ (OSFA) trap—a failure to recognise that several, complementary types of monitoring are required to support effective policy.

Long‐Term Effects of Low‐Drop Grade Control Structures on Channel Evolution in the Yazoo River Basin

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Channel incision is a widespread problem, especially in river basins that have an extensive history of channel alterations. Because channel incision causes large ecological and economic consequences, the prevention of continued migration of headcuts, defined as a steep change in stream gradient over a short reach, has been the focus of many ...

Extended Strahler Ordering to Distinguish Mapped River Channels From Overland Flow Pathways and Consistently Compare Digital Networks

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Digital networks are virtual representations of freshwater systems that provide important inputs to, and mapping of, river classifications, simulation models, and quantitative data analyses for policy, planning, and management. Strahler order has often been used to characterize network configuration and as a proxy indicator of river channel ...

The Transboundary Reach of the Columbia River: Cottonwood Colonization Followed Flow Moderation From the Columbia River Treaty Dams

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Columbia river provides the largest Pacific outflow in the Western Hemisphere and the greatest hydropower production of any North American river system. For hydropower generation and flood risk management, four massive water storage reservoirs followed the Columbia River Treaty between Canada and the United States, with three Canadian dams,
