The Geomorphic Influence of Agricultural Land Use on Stream Hydraulics and Biological Function
Agricultural land use near streams frequently results in long-term disturbance to woody riparian vegetation and an alteration of reach scale geomorphic structure. Such disturbances often result in increased fine sediment input to the stream along with direct changes in channel structure. The study …

Headwater Stream Biofilm Structure and Function at High Resolution Spatial-temporal Scales.
… and functional attributes of headwater stream have at large been neglected, despite the long-standing recognition of the importance of interconnectivity of upstream and downstream reaches. Results demonstrated that, catchment specific quasi-seasonal patterns in Shannon-Wiener diversity …

Evaluation of Urban Riparian Buffers on Stream Health in the Tookany Watershed, PA
Stream channels and their corresponding riparian zones are composed of complex spatially and temporally dynamic systems. Changing land-use associated with urbanization has resulted in large shifts in riparian assemblages, stream hydraulics, and sediment dynamics leading to the degradation of the …

Comparison of Hydraulic Function and Channel-Floodplain Connectivity Between Actively and Passively Restored Reaches of Stroubles Creek 11 Years After Restoration
… reaches of an urban- and agriculturally-impacted stream in southwest Virginia. The three reaches all had cattle excluded from the channel in 2010. The farthest upstream, Treatment 1, was left to progress without intervention beyond cattle removal while the other two, Treatments 2 and 3, were …
