Boulder, Colo., USA - In their article for Geosphere, R. Craig Kochel and colleagues discuss the geomorphic impact of the flooding caused Tropical Storm Lee in September 2011 on several large ...

Rivers are dynamic and complex systems shaped by interactions among flow regime, sediment transport, water quality, and geomorphic processes. These ...

Geomorphic reclamation is a relatively novel approach intended to mimic the topography of nearby undisturbed lands, with a wide variety of terrain that is stable and less susceptible to erosion. A new ...

South of the high mountain axis of the Pyrenees the southern margin, known as the Prepyrenees, forms a distinctive, relatively homogeneous region. This paper provides an overview of the geomorphic ...

Flood discharge and stream scour studies at pipeline mountain stream crossings alone cannot adequately protect a pipeline where other, more-hazardous processes are possible. Studies have shown that ...

This NSF-funded project provides a comprehensive estimate of floodplain organic carbon storage across the conterminous United States to determine the impact of human activities on floodplain carbon ...
