Response of Avian Communities in Large-river Floodplains to Environmental Variation at Multiple Scales
Large-river floodplains have been subjected to profound human-caused alteration, but subsequent effects on landbirds in these habitats are largely unknown. To assess the extent to which landscape measures might serve as ecological indicators in these systems, we examined patterns of habitat use by forest birds along a 380-km stretch of the Wisconsin River, USA. We surveyed forest bird communiti...
متن کاملMonitoring Vegetation Biomass in River Floodplains Using Imaging Spectroscopy
For optimal management of river floodplains in the Netherlands monitoring of natural vegetation succession and hydrodynamic processes is essential. A key biophysical parameter to monitor floodplains is vegetation biomass. Not only because it influences the hydraulic resistance determining the discharge capacity of the floodplains, but also indicating species diversity and habitat heterogeneity ...
متن کاملWavelet-ANN Model for River Sedimentation Predictions
The observation of peak flows into river or stream system is not straight forward but complex function of hydrology and geology. Accurate suspended sediment prediction in rivers is an integral component of sustainable water resources and environmental systems modeling. Agricultural fields’ fertility decays, rivers capacity decreases and reservoirs are filled due to sedimentation. The observatio...
متن کاملUnsteady 1D flow model of a river with partly vegetated floodplains - application to the Rhine River
A relatively simple unsteady flow model was proposed which estimates velocities, friction factors and the components of discharge in the main channel and on the floodplains simultaneously. Bottom roughness of the main channel and the floodplains, the flow resistance of vegetation on the floodplains and the flow resistance caused by the momentum transfer between the main channel and the floodpla...
متن کاملSedimentation monitoring including uncertainty analysis in complex floodplains: a case study in the Mekong Delta
Quantity and quality of sediment deposition in complex floodplains are affected by many processes that are typically highly spatially and temporally variable and hard to quantify exactly. The main processes in this context are suspended sediment transport dynamics in rivers, floodplain channel interactions, and internal floodplain processes. In consequence, any point measurement of sedimentatio...
