TL;DR: The first set of detailed spatial data from a gravity current over a rough seafloor that demonstrate that this existing paradigm is not universal is presented, and that gravity currents are analogous to self-organised atmospheric jets.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) to measure ice surface topography and absorption at high spatial resolution, confirming ablation rates either reduce or increase under thick (insulating) and thin (reduced albedo) ash deposits, respectively.

TL;DR: In this article, an international web-based survey was launched to draw generalizations about the diverse international river restoration community, and the results, posted on the web, act as a database of perceptions and individual experiences, from which the restoration community can make their own interpretations.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on field observations spanning September 2013 to July 2014 of the three-dimensional flow structure, bed morphological change and partitioning of both flow discharge and suspended sediment through a large diffluence-confluence unit on the Mekong River, Cambodia, across a range of flow stages.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the presence of net radial material transport, arising from flow superelevation and overspill, exerts a key control on the near bed orientation of secondary flow in submarine meanders, which implies that river-reversed flows are likely to be much more prevalent throughout submarine-canyon fan systems than prior studies have indicated.
