Driven by the need for integrated management of groundwater (GW) and surface water
(SW), quantification of GW–SW interactions and associated contaminant transport has …

Fifty years of hyporheic zone research have shown the important role played by the
hyporheic zone as an interface between groundwater and surface waters. However, it is only …

Previously regarded as the passive drains of watersheds, over the past 50 years, rivers have
progressively been recognized as being actively connected with off‐channel environments …

This literature review addresses how wide a streamside forest buffer needs to be to protect
water quality, habitat, and biota for small streams (≤~ 100 km2 or~ 5th order watershed) …

In this chapter, the authors aim to uncover the organizational principles–the main drivers
and controls, and their interactions and feedbacks–that determine the development and …

Legacies are persistent changes in natural systems resulting from human activities.
Legacies that affect river ecosystems can result from human alterations outside of the river …

Floodplains perform diverse functions, including attenuation of fluxes of water, solutes, and
particulate material. Critical details of floodplain storage including magnitude, duration, and …

The hyporheic zone, defined by shallow subsurface pathways through river beds and banks
beginning and ending at the river, is an integral and unique component of fluvial systems. It …

Instream and floodplain wood can provide many benefits to river ecosystems, but can also
create hazards for inhabitants, infrastructure, property, and recreational users in the river …

Rivers are the great shapers of terrestrial landscapes. Very few points on Earth above sea
level do not lie within a drainage basin. Even points distant from the nearest channel are …
