A review of the impacts of dams on the hydromorphology of tropical rivers
A major programme of dam building is underway in many of the world's tropical countries.
This raises the question of whether existing research is sufficient to fully understand the …

Mega-reservoir regulation: A comparative study on downstream responses of the Yangtze and Yellow rivers
Large reservoirs can considerably alter the water-sediment dynamics and morphology of
alluvial rivers. Here we review the effects of two mega reservoirs operated with different …

Severely declining suspended sediment concentration in the heavily dammed Changjiang fluvial system
As a key component of global change, dam‐induced sediment reduction occurs in large
rivers worldwide, which has profound implications on the fluvial systems. However, the …

Effects of multiple stressors on river biofilms depend on the time scale
Global change exposes ecosystems to a myriad of stressors differing in their spatial (ie
surface of stressed area) and temporal (ie exposure time) components. Among freshwater …

Alteration of gravel-bed river morphodynamics in response to multiple anthropogenic disturbances: Insights from the sediment-starved Parma River (northern Italy)
The alteration of sediment transport regime represents one of the key factors controlling the
response of fluvial systems to human impacts. Additional research efforts are required to …

The connectivity between soil erosion and sediment entrapment in reservoirs
Rivers are characterized by their water flow regime and sediment transport. Sediments are
crucial for channel morphology, water quality, providing habitat for aquatic organisms and …

Stabilization of fluvial bed sediments by invasive quagga mussels (Dreissena bugensis)
River gravel mobility is an important control on river behaviour, morphology, and ecosystem
processes. Gravel stability is dependent on abiotic flow and sediment properties, alongside …

Variation in flow and suspended sediment transport in a montane river affected by hydropeaking and instream mining
The temporal and spatial variability of water and sediment loads of rivers is controlled by a
suite of factors whose individual effects are often difficult to disentangle. While land use …
