Geometry of obstacle marks at instream boulders—integration of laboratory investigations and field observations
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"
DOI: 10.1002/esp.5055
Abstract: Obstacle marks are instream bedforms, typically composed of an upstream frontal scour hole and a downstream sediment accumulation in the vicinity of an obstacle. Local scouring at infrastructure (e.g. bridge piers) is a well‐studied phenomenon… read more here.

Trapping of Suspended Sediment by Submerged Aquatic Vegetation in a Tidal Freshwater Region: Field Observations and Long-Term Trends
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Estuaries and Coasts"
DOI: 10.1007/s12237-020-00799-w
Abstract: Widespread invasion by non-native, submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) may modify the sediment budget of an estuary, reducing the availability of inorganic sediment required by marshes to maintain their position in the tidal frame. The instantaneous… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.agrformet.2017.10.008
Abstract: Abstract Ecosystems’ potential to provide services, e.g. to sequester carbon, is largely driven by the phenological cycle of vegetation. Timing of phenological events is required for understanding and predicting the influence of climate change on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.csr.2018.10.002
Abstract: Abstract Turbulence is critical for sediment mobilisation in shallow water and hence beach evolution. Present large-scale morphological models often exclude the effects of bed- and surface-generated turbulence on the short-wave sediment transport, which might be… read more here.
