The interface between groundwater and surface water within riverine/riparian ecosystems—
the hyporheic zone (HZ)—is experiencing a rapid growth of research interest from a range of …

Chlorinated ethenes (CEs) are legacy contaminants whose chemical footprint is expected to
persist in aquifers around the world for many decades to come. These organohalides have …

Environmental transitions often result in resource mixtures that overcome limitations to
microbial metabolism, resulting in biogeochemical hotspots and moments. Riverine systems …

Rivers are important ecosystems under continuous anthropogenic stresses. The hyporheic
zone is a ubiquitous, reactive interface between the main channel and its surrounding …

1. River corridors can be visualised as a three‐dimensional mosaic of surface–subsurface
exchange patches over multiple spatial scales. Along major flow paths, surface water …

Subsurface flow within a single riffle of a low‐gradient gravel bed stream was modeled in
three dimensions using MODFLOW, a finite difference groundwater flow model. Model …

Little is known on microbial activities in the sediments of large lowland rivers despite of their
potentially high influence on biogeochemical budgets. Based on field measurements in a …

Mine water pollution is a major cause of surface-and groundwater pollution in former mining
districts throughout Europe. It is a potential barrier to achieving good status water bodies …

Following the scheme of Vitousek et al.(1997) for global environmental change, there are
three primary sources of anthropogenic disturbance that can affect the linkages between …

Sediment bacterial communities play a critical role in biogeochemical cycling in lotic
ecosystems. Despite their ecological significance, the effects of urban discharge on …
