Integrating solute transport, metabolism and processing in stream ecosystems

Creator:

González Pinzón, Ricardo A.

Abstract:

After three decades of active research coupling hydrology and stream ecology, the connection among solute transport, metabolism and processing is still unresolved. These knowledge gaps obscure the functioning of stream ecosystems and how those ecosystems interact with other landscape processes. We must resolve these challenges to wisely manage water resources,...

Lateral cavities in streams : flow structure and mean residence times from channel hydraulics, morphology, and computational fluid dynamics

Creator:

Jackson, Tracie R.

Abstract:

Surface transient storage (STS) and hyporheic transient storage (HTS) have functional significance in stream ecology and hydrology. Both provide refugia for aquatic communities and their longer mean residence times (compared to the main flow) increase the potential for biogeochemical reactions that can improve water quality. As STS and HTS have...
