Large wood is an important physical component of woodland rivers and significantly
influences river morphology. It is also a key component of stream ecosystems. However …

Large wood (LW) elements transported during large floods are long known to have the
capacity to induce dangerous obstructions along the channel network, mostly at bridges and …

Nearly 50 years of research focused on large wood (LW) in rivers provide a basis for
understanding how wood enters rivers; how wood decays, breaks, and is transported …

Interactions between floodplains and wood date to the Carboniferous, when stable,
multithread channel deposits appear with the evolution of tree-like plants. Foundational …

Rivers are the great shapers of terrestrial landscapes. Very few points on Earth above sea
level do not lie within a drainage basin. Even points distant from the nearest channel are …

Flash floods are one of the most damaging natural hazards in tropics. Seasonal and
extraordinary rainfall recurrently trigger flash floods in Costa Rica. Hurricane Otto was the …

Tropical regions are frequently affected by intense floods causing substantial human and
economic losses. A proper management of floods and the prevention of disasters is …

To effectively manage wood in rivers, we need a better understanding of wood mobility
within river networks. Here, we review primarily field-based (and some numerical) studies of …

The transport of wood in rivers during floods is an important process that underlies
differences in habitat and morphology between water courses and regions. Quantitative data …

Freshwaters provide valuable habitat and important ecosystem services but are threatened
worldwide by habitat loss and degradation. In Southeast Asia, rainforest streams are …
