Inference of River Hydrodynamics and Ice Processes from Close-Range Remote Sensing
… and data collection in earth sciences and river engineering has transformed our understanding of river processes, leading to improved management and preservation of these vital resources. Remote sensing, particularly close-range remote sensing, has emerged as a useful tool for acquiring …

IMPACTS OF CLIMATE AND REGULATION ON ICE-JAM FLOODING OF NORTHERN RIVERS AND THEIR INLAND DELTAS
In cold region environments, ice-jam floods (IJFs) are important hydrological and hydraulic events that play an important role in floodplain ecology but also pose a major concern for citizens, authorities, insurance companies and government agencies, primarily because they can result in high water …

Sedimentologic and Stratigraphic Significance of Boulder Layers in the Outer Coastal Plain of Southeastern Virginia
… yet distinct layers.</p> <p>The ancestral James River with sea-level 100 meters lower than today probably had the capacity to entrain 70-80 percent of the clasts in the boulder layers, but probably not the capacity to entrain the larger cobbles and boulders in the boulder layers. Winter river-ice …

Seasons in the Stream: River Ecosystem Phenology in a Changing Climate
… light availability and temperature. In small rivers, primary productivity often peaks opposite that of terrestrial ecosystems, where overhanging canopies shade the river channel impeding light reaching the water surface. The degree to which river primary productivity is affected by the …

Environmental dependence of mass-dimension relationships and investigation of microphysical observations of a southern hemisphere atmospheric river
Ice microphysical processes have a profound impact on the weather and climate given their ability to change radiative, thermodynamic, and precipitation properties. Their representation in models and remote sensing retrievals, however, is highly uncertain given the variable nature of ice particle …
