The impact of vegetation on meandering rivers
The Palaeozoic evolution of land plants revolutionized river geomorphology. However, the
relationships between biotic forcing and channel dynamics are still debated and, as such …

Why mountains matter for biodiversity
Mountains are arguably Earth's most striking features. They play a major role in determining
global and regional climates, are the source of most rivers, act as cradles, barriers and …

Plants as river system engineers
Plants growing within river corridors both affect and respond to fluvial processes. Their
above‐ground biomass modifies the flow field and retains sediment, whereas their below …

Ecology in an anthropogenic biosphere
Humans, unlike any other multicellular species in Earth's history, have emerged as a global
force that is transforming the ecology of an entire planet. It is no longer possible to …

Time scale interactions and the coevolution of humans and water
We present a coevolutionary view of hydrologic systems, revolving around feedbacks
between environmental and social processes operating across different time scales. This …
