Advances in topobathymetric LiDARs could enable rapid surveys at sub‐meter resolution
over entire stream networks. This is the first step to improving our knowledge of riverine …

With high‐resolution topography and imagery in fluvial environments, the potential to
quantify physical fish habitat at the reach scale has never been better. Increased availability …

Remote sensing tools are increasingly used for quantitative mapping of fluvial habitats, yet
few techniques exist for continuous sampling of aquatic organisms, such as spawning …

Microhabitat suitability models are commonly used to estimate salmonid habitat abundance
and quality with unknown accuracy or reliability. When tested, the metrics used to evaluate …

Quantifying geomorphic conditions that impact riverine ecosystems is critical in river
management due to degraded riverine habitat, changing flow and thermal conditions, and …

Large‐scale river restoration programs have emerged recently as a tool for improving
spawning habitat for native salmonids in highly altered river ecosystems. Few studies have …

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas with an estimated 10% of anthropogenic
N2O coming from the hyporheic zone of streams and rivers. However, difficulty in making …

Management and conservation of freshwater habitat requires fine spatial resolution and
watershed-scale and life-stage-specific methods due to complex linkages among land …

Groundwater is a hidden part of the water cycle due to its subterranean nature but is highly
connected to rivers, lakes, and wetlands. In this chapter, we review the physical basis of …

Abstract In the Hanford Reach of the Columbia River, a thin layer of recent alluvium overlies
the sedimentary formations that comprise the unconfined groundwater aquifer. Experimental …
