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 …

Large wood is an important physical component of woodland rivers and significantly
influences river morphology. It is also a key component of stream ecosystems. However …

In response to various types of human disturbance, most Italian rivers have experienced
considerable channel adjustment during the last centuries and in particular in the last …

In the last two decades river restoration has become increasingly a field of research asking a
series of complex questions related not just to science but also to society. Why should we …

Recent research has emphasized the importance of riparian ecosystems as centers of

ABSTRACT For decades, Channel Evolution Models have provided useful templates for
understanding morphological responses to disturbance associated with lowering base level …

Our objective is to understand general causes of different river channel patterns. In this
paper we compare an empirical stream power‐based classification and a physics‐based …

Traditional policies for managing river bank erosion are currently being reconsidered as a
result of increased awareness regarding the unsustainable nature of some forms of bank …

Drastic channel adjustments have affected the main alluvial rivers of Tuscany (central Italy)
during the 20th century. Bed‐level adjustments were identified both by comparing available …
