Legacy effects on river sediments are those which alter the location and volume of
sediments and/or presence of contaminants within the sediments as a result of human …

A major programme of dam building is underway in many of the world's tropical countries.
This raises the question of whether existing research is sufficient to fully understand the …

Sediments link hillslopes to river channels. The size of sediments entering channels is a key
control on river morphodynamics across a range of scales, from channel response to human …

Human-induced landscape change is difficult to predict due to the complexity inherent in
both geomorphic and social systems as well as due to the coupling relationships between …

Heavy sedimentation has led to the phenomenon of a secondary perched river in the lower
reaches of the Yellow River. The water–sediment regulation scheme (WSRS) using the …

The sediment transport of the highly regulated lower Ebro River is estimated on the basis of
a measuring programme carried out between 2002 and 2004. Total sediment transport …

Field measurements of sediment transport in gravel bed rivers often reveal hysteretic effects
due to differences in sediment availability between the rising and falling limbs of a flood …

Sediment transport during flood events often reveals hysteretic patterns because flow
discharge can peak before (counterclockwise hysteresis) or after (clockwise hysteresis) the …

Check dams are transversal structures built across morphologically-active streams in
mountainous regions. These structures have been used widely in torrent-hazard mitigation …

Flushing flows have been implemented in the lower Ebro River since 2003, with the
principle objective of removing excess macrophytes. This paper describes the hydrology …
