Hydropower is commonly considered a renewable energy source. Nevertheless, this does
not imply an absence of impacts on the riverine ecosystem, the extent of which is expected …

Soil erosion is both a major driver and consequence of land degradation with significant on-
site and off-site costs which are critical to understand and quantify. One major cost of soil …

The relationship between river hydrology and microplastic (MP) pollution is complex:
increased discharge does not always mobilize more MPs, but floods can effectively flush out …

Sedimentation in reservoirs constitutes a major issue worldwide, especially when
hydropower, and hence profit, is involved. In this study, the sedimentation rates, due to soil …

Among surface water sources, reservoirs of dams, especially in arid and semi-arid regions of
the world, have always faced the problem of sedimentation and storage capacity reduction …

Simple Summary Questions on how features of aquatic invertebrates (eg, size, feeding style,
respiration mode) evolve along a gradient of flow velocity, turbidity and elevation are rarely …

Sediment supply downstream of dams through control techniques of reservoir sedimentation
is attracting attention for promoting both sustainable water use and river ecosystem …

Quantifying the effects of external climatic and anthropogenic stressors on aquatic
ecosystems is an important task for scientific purposes and management progress in the …

Among the most characteristic offsite effects of soil erosion, reservoir sedimentation is one of
the longlasting problems pertaining to storage capacity and dam operations. In this work …

Controlled sediment flushing operations (CSFOs) allow to recover reservoirs storage loss
while rebalancing the sediment flux interrupted by dams but, at the same time, may cause …
