Remote sensing technology offers the ability to derive information on freshwater fish habitats
across broad geographic areas and has the potential to transform approaches to monitoring …

Lidar remote sensing has been used to survey stream channel and floodplain topography
for decades. However, traditional platforms, such as aerial laser scanning (ALS) from an …

Detailed modeling of floodplain flows and associated processes requires data on mixed,
heterogeneous vegetation at river reach scale, though the collection of vegetation data is …

Human activities influence watershed sediment dynamics in profound ways, often resulting
in excessive loading of suspended sediment to rivers. One of the primary factors limiting our …

Macro-roughness elements such as boulders and bedrock outcrops, collectively referred to
as large bed elements (LBEs), are key features influencing hydrodynamics and …

Riverscapes are complex ecosystems consisting of dynamic processes influenced by
spatially heterogeneous physical features. A critical component of riverscapes is vegetation …

The large eddy simulation (LES) module of the Virtual StreamLab (VSL3D) model is applied
to simulate the flow and transport of a conservative tracer in a headwater stream in …

The objective of this study was to identify and quantify surface depressions on grass-
covered land surfaces using a high-resolution terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) point cloud …

Headwater streams can contribute significant amounts of fine sediment to downstream
waterways, especially when severely eroded and incised. Potential upstream sediment …

Relative submergence of macroroughness elements such as boulders and bedrock
outcrops, or large bed elements (LBEs), collectively, is a primary control on hydraulics and …
