Anabranching rivers are characterized by multiple active channels. Vegetation, flow regime
and sediment retention are critical components for the formation, evolution and stability of …

This review explores the implications of climate change for the functioning of plant species
as biogeomorphic engineers of temperate river systems, including the potential for an …

The invasive herb Lupinus polyphyllus has been focus of a number of fact sheets worldwide
but a comprehensive summary of the species' taxonomy and morphology, distribution …

Freshwater ecosystems support the highest biological diversity per unit area on the planet,
despite occupying much less area than terrestrial and marine systems. Freshwater …

While the scientific community has long recognized that alluvial rivers are the product of
interactions between flowing water and bed material transport, it is increasingly evident that …

In this article, we track the evolution of fluvial biogeomorphology from the middle of the 20th
century to the present. We consider the emergence of fluvial biogeomorphology as an …

Aims The impact of plant age on morphological traits, peak pullout force of the root system,
tensile force, tensile strength, and elastic modulus of a single root was investigated with …

Abstract For years, Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) has been suspected of
accelerating riverbank erosion, despite a lack of convincing evidence. The stems of this …

Rivers have an intricate relationship with the vegetation that colonizes them. Riparian plants,
capable of thriving within river corridors, both respond to and influence geomorphology. Yet …

Although the impacts of single-species invasions on resident communities have been widely
studied, the ecological effects of co-invasion (simultaneous invasion by multiple alien …
