The daily activities of mammals, reptiles, crustaceans, and fish influence the physical environment, with invasive burrowing species causing particular disruption in aquatic environments.Read More »Hydrology, Cryosphere & Earth Surface
Logging, urbanization, and dam building are a few ways people have significantly altered natural river ecosystems. Understanding that influence is a grand challenge of our time. Read More »Hydrology, Cryosphere & Earth Surface
He conducted river morphology research based on systematic and reproducible measurements, pushing fluvial hydrology to become a more quantitative science.Read More »
A new algorithm incorporates randomness into stream channel formation and suggests the approach represents regions with variable flood magnitudes better than standard models.Read More »Hydrology, Cryosphere & Earth Surface
In the company of other explorers as passionate as he was about geomorphology, Gilbert derived one fundamental geological insight after another from the landscapes of the American West.Read More »Hydrology, Cryosphere & Earth Surface
The total sediment mass transported by flow under different sets of regimes is insensitive to the exact details of hydraulic forcing, but what matters is cumulative transport capacity. Read More »Hydrology, Cryosphere & Earth Surface
A stochastic sediment routing model for river networks is inverted to determine sediment source areas based on point observations of grain size and sediment flux at the basin outlet.Read More »Hydrology, Cryosphere & Earth Surface
