DOI: 10.1016/j.geomorph.2019.02.032

Abstract: Abstract As rivers approach base level, their water and sediment dynamics are affected by a transitional reach known as the backwater zone. At low flows, backwater zones cause flow deceleration and in-channel sedimentation, but at… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2025gl114807

Abstract: Interconnected river‐lake systems are much more complex than either one due to their interactions. The Poyang Lake‐Yangtze River system has received much attention due to the reverse flow from the Yangtze River, which blocks the… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2018 at "Water and Environment Journal"

DOI: 10.1111/wej.12303

Abstract: This article proposes a mathematical method to calculate the backwater level at bridge constrictions for compound channels. Such a model is necessary, as many of the previously developed simple formulas yield inaccurate results. Parametric studies… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/d16080495

Abstract: The backwater lowland habitats of large rivers, like the Mississippi River in North America, present complex and often inaccessible environments for traditional capture-based fish biodiversity sampling. Our knowledge of the assemblages of the fishes that… read more here.
