Connecting geologically mapped data to numerical modelling can help in understanding river landscape evolution. This study focuses on flood-induced breaching of the coversand ridge IJssel valley floodplain (Rhine delta, Netherlands). The development breach would explain why this branch came into existence early medieval times. Prior breaching, formed a barrier for Rhine River discharge towards ...

Abstract The alluvial backwater areas of the Danube are valuable ecological habitats containing important drinking water resources. Due to river regulation and construction power plants, levels natural dynamics continuously decline, threatening their typical characteristics. aim this study was evaluate how an increased connectivity branch located in a nature-protected riverine floodplain (enabl...

Implementing appropriate policies is crucial for adapting the agricultural sector to climate change. However, adopting incorrect can exacerbate unsustainable development. Hence, this study investigated unintended consequences of agritourism development as a change adaptation strategy in villages Shahrud, Iran. It demonstrated how such have inadvertently heightened farmers’ vulnerability impacts...

In recent years, river flow into Sistan dam changed because of construction dams and expansion irrigation areas in the upper Helmand basin. Planning for more heightening Kajaki basin shall intensify severity water shortage Hamun Lake. located at downstream on branch river, power shifts Afghanistan upstream basins absence an integrated authority/management are major problems. Political nature in...

Cottonwoods (Populus spp.) are adapted to riparian or floodplain zones throughout the Northern Hemisphere; they are also used as parents for fast-growing hybrid poplars. We review recent ecophysiological studies of the native cottonwoods Populus angustifolia James, P. balsamifera L., P. deltoides Marsh., P. fremontii S. Watson and P. trichocarpa T. & G. in North America, and P. nigra L. in Euro...

The Rugged Mountain intrusion is a small (14 km% zoned alkaline pluton located in northwestern British Columbia, 25 kilometres southwest of Telegraph Creek (Brown eta/., lYY2;r. h). The pluton is exposed on the north side of Shakes Creek, a southeasterly flowing tributary of the Stikine River and on the south flank of Rugged Mountain from which it takes its name. The Rugged Mountain pluton was ...

the karkheh dam reservoir with a capacity of more than 5 billion cubic meter is the largest dam in iran with both agricultural and drinking usages. its hydrodynamics and water quality were modeled and simulated to analyze the total maximum daily load (tmdl) of total dissolved solids (tds). the simulation was supported with measurements of temperature and tds measurements during two years. a lat...

During the last decades there is low flow in the Euphrates River then consequently low flowin Hilla River which is branch of Euphrates River, Iraq. The Tyass Barrage constructed to lift thehydraulic head upstream in Hilla River raised the groundwater table above ground surface.Environmental problems have been occurred in Hashimyia Area, Babylon Governorate, causingflooding an ar...

[1] Vegetation roughness, and more specifically forest roughness, is a necessary component in better defining flood dynamics both in the sense of changes in river catchment characteristics and the dynamics of forest changes and management. Extracting roughness parameters from riparian forests can be a complicated process involving different components for different required scales and flow dept...
