The growing awareness of the environmental significance of fine-grained sediment fluxes
through catchment systems continues to underscore the need for reliable information on the …

Connectivity describes the efficiency of material transfer between geomorphic system
components such as hillslopes and rivers or longitudinal segments within a river network …

Tracing sediments back to their catchment sources using biogeochemical and physical
fingerprints involves multiple assumptions. One of the most fundamental assumptions is that …

The distributions and abundances of trout and salmon are strongly influenced by their
habitat. The habitat includes both abiotic and biotic factors, which interact in complex webs …

Fine‐grained sediment is a natural and essential component of river systems and plays a
major role in the hydrological, geomorphological and ecological functioning of rivers. In …

Fine-grained sediment is perhaps the most widespread and pervasive contaminant in
aquatic systems reflecting its role in influencing the quality of the water (eg, turbidity, vector …

Sediment fingerprinting is a technique that is increasingly being used to improve the
understanding of sediment dynamics within river basins. At present, one of the main …

Recent years have seen a growing awareness of the wider environmental significance of the
suspended sediment loads transported by rivers and streams. This includes the importance …

Suspended sediment has significant effects on reservoir storage capacity, the operation of
