This paper is a review of recent (< or= 10 years) information on litterfall, standing stock of
benthic organic matter, breakdown rates, and fungal colonization of organic matter in …

Vast areas of the Iberian Peninsula are covered by monocultures of the exotic tree
Eucalyptus globulus. Given that (1) leaf litter produced in the riparian areas is the main …

To effectively manage wood in rivers, we need a better understanding of wood mobility
within river networks. Here, we review primarily field-based (and some numerical) studies of …

This paper investigates wood recruitment and deposition dynamics in a large gravel-bed,
braided river (Tagliamento River, Italy). We used a combination of field measurements …

Channel complexity affects the physical structure, biotic communities and functioning of
stream ecosystems. Large wood (LW) is a key element in the creation and maintenance of …

TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 653: Effects of
Debris on Bridge Pier Scour explores guidelines to help estimate the quantity of …

Litterfall inputs, benthic storage and the transport of coarse particulate organic matter
(CPOM) were studied in two headwater streams, one flowing through a mixed deciduous …

We tested the hypothesis that wood influences stream channel morphology, sediment
composition, retention, and storage of organic matter by experimentally removing all wood …

Large wood tends to be deposited in specific geomorphic units within rivers. Nevertheless,
predicting the spatial distribution of wood deposits once wood enters a river is still difficult …

Breakdown of wood was compared at three sites of the Agüera catchment (Iberian
Peninsula): two oligotrophic first‐order reaches (one under deciduous forest, the other under …
