Journal ArticleDOI
The Natural Sediment Regime in Rivers: Broadening the Foundation for Ecosystem Management
Ellen Wohl,Brian P. Bledsoe,Robert B. Jacobson,N. LeRoy Poff,Sara L. Rathburn,David M. Walters,Andrew C. Wilcox +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss sediment inputs, transport, and storage within river systems; interactions among water, sediment, and valley context; and the need to broaden the natural flow regime concept.
Journal ArticleDOI
Connectivity as an emergent property of geomorphic systems
Ellen Wohl,Gary Brierley,Daniel Cadol,Tom J. Coulthard,Tim Covino,Kirstie Fryirs,Gordon E. Grant,Robert G. Hilton,Stuart N. Lane,Francis J. Magilligan,Kimberly M. Meitzen,Paola Passalacqua,Ronald E. Poeppl,Sara L. Rathburn,Leonard S. Sklar +14 more
TL;DR: The value in evaluating boundaries between components of geomorphic systems as transition zones and examining the fluxes across them to understand landscape functioning is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Landslide response to climate change in permafrost regions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors synthesize the fundamental processes that will increase landslide frequency and magnitude in permafrost regions in the coming decades with observational and analytical studies that document landslide regimes at high latitudes and elevations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting fine sediment dynamics along a pool-riffle mountain channel
Sara L. Rathburn,Ellen Wohl +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on sediment dynamics within pools of the North Fork Poudre River in Colorado as an example of the processes controlling fine sediment deposition, storage, and transport within laterally constricted pools.
Journal ArticleDOI
One-dimensional sediment transport modeling of pool recovery along a mountain channel after a reservoir sediment release
Sara L. Rathburn,Ellen Wohl +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, two one-dimensional sediment transport models, HEC-6 and GSTARS 2.0, were evaluated for applicability to predict sediment removal along the steep gradient, bedrock-controlled pool-riffle North Fork.
