Silicate weathering is thought to increase and offset the rapid, massive input of CO2 into atmosphere ocean during Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), but few nonmarine records have been used quantify this. We probe changes in silicate intensity by measuring Li isotope ratios bedrock ancient floodplain deposits spanning PETM Bighorn Basin, Wyoming (USA). Our results reveal a rapid that rem...

Flow resistance, velocity distribution, and turbulence intensity are significantly influenced by aquatic vegetations (AV) in riparian zones. Understanding the hydraulics of flow with planted floodplains is great significance for determining distribution profile supporting fluvial processes management. However, traditional flume experiment method inefficient. Therefore, multigroup simultaneous t...

Collaborative governance has been introduced in the planning and implementation phases of river management, but has not yet reached the maintenance phase. In anticipation of this, this article explores how stakeholders shape collaborative initiatives aimed at maintaining multifunctional floodplains by analyzing their framing of collaboration objectives and membership structures. The case study ...

One surviving stronghold of endangered Northern swamp deer is Jhadi taal (lake) in Kishanpur Wildlife Sanctuary on the floodplains of Sharda River. Changes in channel characteristics and land use/cover in a stretch of the river were detected during 1948–2001 and their impact on deer habitat was assessed. Analyses revealed consistent shift of west bank line towards taal, moving to within 100 m i...
