Adaptation to natural flow regimes.
Floods and droughts are important features of most running water ecosystems, but the alteration of natural flow regimes by recent human activities, such as dam building, raises questions related to both evolution and conservation. Among organisms inhabiting running waters, what adaptations exist for surviving floods and droughts? How will the alteration of the frequency, timing and duration of ...
متن کاملNonlinear Dynamics for Classification of Multiphase Flow Regimes
The problem of identification of flow regimes in processes involving multiphase mixtures (nuclear plant, fluidization, hydrocarbons, chemical reactors) is an open problem for many industrial applications. Generally, different flow regimes induce different performances of the system. Due to the highly non-linear nature of the forces which rule the flow regime transitions, the prediction is reall...
متن کاملEcological responses to altered flow regimes: a literature review to inform the science and management of environmental flows
1. In an effort to develop quantitative relationships between various kinds of flow alteration and ecological responses, we reviewed 165 papers published over the last four decades, with a focus on more recent papers. Our aim was to determine if general relationships could be drawn from disparate case studies in the literature that might inform environmental flows science and management. 2. For...
متن کاملResilience of river flow regimes.
Landscape and climate alterations foreshadow global-scale shifts of river flow regimes. However, a theory that identifies the range of foreseen impacts on streamflows resulting from inhomogeneous forcings and sensitivity gradients across diverse regimes is lacking. Here, we derive a measurable index embedding climate and landscape attributes (the ratio of the mean interarrival of streamflow-pro...
متن کاملthe effects of changing roughness on the flow structure in the bends
flow in natural river bends is a complex and turbulent phenomenon which affects the scour and sedimentations and causes an irregular bed topography on the bed. for the reason, the flow hydralics and the parameters which affect the flow to be studied and understand. in this study the effect of bed and wall roughness using the software fluent discussed in a sharp 90-degree flume bend with 40.3cm ...
