River-Floodplain Connectivity and Sediment Transport Potential: Applications to Sediment Dynamics on Floodplains and Juvenile Freshwater Mussel Settling in Rivers
River-floodplain connectivity is the degree of water-driven transport of matter, energy, and organisms between rivers and their floodplains. Recent advancement of high-resolution lidar data and numerical modeling is helpful to explore river-floodplain connectivity precisely to improve our …

Floodplain Hydrology and Biogeochemistry
River-floodplain connectivity is defined as the water mediated transfer of materials and energy between a river or stream and its adjacent floodplain. It is generally accepted that restoring and/or enhancing river-floodplain connectivity can reduce the downstream flux of reactive solutes such as …

Monitoring and Managing River Corridors in the Midst of Growing Water Demand
Rivers and their surrounding riparian and subsurface ecosystems, known as river corridors, are important landscape features that provide a myriad of ecological and societal benefits. While the importance of riverine flooding has been widely acknowledged and extensively studied, very little research …

Ecological-Hydrological Feedback in Forested Wetlands
… dynamics, tree water use and growth responses to river-floodplain connectivity and water level variability, and interactions between tree-level and site-level effects of flooding. Energy-balance measurements in the understory of a permanently flooded swamp showed nearly all energy was partitioned …
