Transport network infrastructure interacts with the earth's surface because they often share
common spaces (eg river valleys), such that transport is an anthropogenic pressure that can …

This concise review posits the urgent need for conserving the natural diversity of mountain
environments by envisioning mountains as a global natural heritage. Mountains are …

Recognition of structural connectivity is particularly challenging in terrains lacking a
hierarchical fluvial system, but typified by strong bedrock control, extreme ruggedness of …

Large wood (LW) can have significant effects on channel hydraulics by creating hydraulic
resistance that decreases reach-average flow velocity and transport capacity, further …

Soil erosion, a widely-occurring phenomenon in the terrestrial environment, affects land
productivity and infrastructure security negatively both on-site and off-site. Therefore, soil …

Abstract The Mazeri Valley in the southern Caucasus Mountains, Georgia, is characterized
by a highly dynamic landscape with several active mass-wasting processes. The spatial and …

The sediment delivery ratio (SDR) is a key link between slope erosion and river sediment
transport but the accurate quantification of sediment yield in different catchments has been …

Steep mountain environments are typically characterized by high sediment production. In
the case of high hillslope–channel connectivity, high production and intensive transport of …

European multi-thread rivers have undergone rapid morphological changes during past
centuries due to the extensive direct and indirect human impacts on fluvial systems. As a …

Sediment transport to river channels in a basin is of great significance for a variety of
reasons ranging from soil preservation to siltation prevention of reservoirs. Among the …
