Hypsometric and geometric controls on hydrodynamics, tidal asymmetry, and sediment connectivity in shallow estuarine systems
… between tides, meteorological forcing, and sediment transport processes. This thesis focuses on the fundamental links between these physical processes, and the geomorphologic characteristics of shallow estuarine systems, specifically: (i) how shallow basin geometries and hypsometries affect …

Controls on post-High Park Fire channel response, South Fork Cache la Poudre Basin, Colorado
Post-fire basin sediment yield is the product of multiple erosional processes operating at multiple spatial scales and in different process domains. Most post-fire erosion response studies have focused on the hillslope scale, yet land management decisions and post-fire treatments are addressed at …

Assessing the dynamics of soil erosion and sediment transport under increasing land use pressures in East African Rift Catchments
… land use and land cover change, soil erosion and sediment transport in East African Rift Catchments. This contribution forms a blueprint for future studies using sediment tracing, radionuclide dating, Bayesian Mixing Models and soil erosion mapping, and their reciprocal integration in this …

Investigation of Surface Instability Processes in Burned Areas through Remote Sensing and Field Surveys
… erosion, debris production, and changes in sediment connectivity. This study combines field surveys, remote sensing, and experimental analyses in the 2021 Montiferru-Planargia Fire and 2022 Los Guajares Fire burnt areas to investigate these processes. Thermal spalling is identified as the …

Soil erosion and suspended sediment dynamics in intensive agricultural catchments
Excessive delivery of fine sediment from agricultural river catchments to aquatic ecosystems can degrade chemical water quality and ecological habitats. Management of accelerated soil losses and the transmission of sediment-associated agricultural pollutants, such as phosphorus, is required to …

Sediment transport modelling at the catchment scale in Alpine streams
Sediment management in river networks is of crucial importance for both environmental, productive and safety reasons. For instance, lost of sediment connectivity along river networks is recognized as a major cause of habitat degradation and biodiversity loss worldwide, and erosion/deposition …

From Representative Period Selection to Process‐Based Sediment Dynamics
… in which tides, waves and wind jointly govern sediment transport. Despite its ecological and morphological significance, the region remains comparatively understudied, and its typical residual and storm-driven sediment pathways are poorly understood. This thesis develops an integrated, …

GEOHERITAGE ASSESSMENT, MONITORING AND COMMUNICATION THROUGH MULTIDISCIPLINARY - 3D MODELLING APPROACH.
… in evoluzione passiva, come fonti potenziali di sedimenti, in evoluzione attraverso processi paraglaciali di degradazione. Inoltre, l’integrazione di dati idrogeomorfologici e meteorologici, ha permesso di delineare un quadro sulle dinamiche stagionali di portata liquida e solida in sospensione …

Hydrological And Sedimentological (Dis)Connectivity In An Urban Suds System Based On High Resolution, Multi-Event Monitoring
… biological processes and through the trapping of sediments that often carry undesirable contaminants at above background concentrations.<br/><br/>The study site was based in the Upton housing development, on the western side of Northampton, UK, which was designed in the 1990s based on key …
