River flow regime is believed to have a fundamental effect on riverine biota. It influences key
aquatic processes, including levels of dissolved oxygen, sediment transport and deposition …

Hydrologic alterations designed to provide a stable water supply and to prevent flooding are
commonly used in mediterranean-climate river (med-rivers) basins, and these alterations …

Geomorphologists have studied and debated over the processes responsible for natural
riffle-pool maintenance for decades. Most studies have focused on small wadable rivers, but …

The spatially distributed effects of riparian vegetation on fluvial hydrodynamics during low
flows to large floods are poorly documented. Drawing on a LiDAR-derived, meter-scale …

Restoration of unobstructed, free-flowing sections of river can provide considerable
environmental and ecological benefits. It removes impediments to aquatic species dispersal …

The use of environmental flow (e-flow) regimes has been widely implemented to improve
fish habitat quality in river restoration efforts. However, e-flow designs focusing only on one …

Studies of the effects of hydrodynamic model dimensionality on simulated flow properties
and derived quantities such as aquatic habitat quality are limited. It is important to close this …

Creating a habitat for a variety of forms of life, such as riparian plants and various fish, is a
necessity for stressed river ecosystems. In this study, the hydraulic characteristics of a fish …

Many applications in river research and management rely upon two‐dimensional (2D)
numerical models to characterize flow fields, assess habitat conditions, and evaluate …

This chapter deals with hydraulic modelling for predicting flow properties used in
ecohydraulics, in its broader sense, which encompasses aquatic habitat modelling …
