DOI: 10.1002/esp.4338
Abstract: The prediction of the morphological evolution of renaturalized streams is important for the success of restoration projects. Riparian vegetation is a key component of the riverine landscape and is therefore essential for the natural rehabilitation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/esp.4356
Abstract: Climate change is expected to alter temperatures and precipitation patterns, affecting river flows and hence riparian corridors. In this context we have explored the potential evolution of riparian corridors under a dryness gradient of flow… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10021-018-0252-2
Abstract: Riparian zones are key interfaces between stream and terrestrial ecosystems. Yet, we know of no whole-watershed experiments that cut only woody vegetation in the riparian zone in an otherwise intact watershed to isolate the role… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11252-017-0666-1
Abstract: The southern Appalachian Mountains have experienced large population growth and a change in land use in the past 30 years. The majority of development has been low density, suburban land, known as exurban development. The long-term… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s42974-020-00014-7
Abstract: The present study aims to verify possible changes in the functional feeding group (FFG) structure of benthic macroinvertebrates related to changes in headwater streams riparian vegetation. Streams with this vegetation fully present (forested), present only… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2019.04.010
Abstract: Abstract Recovery of understory vegetation after clearcut harvesting has received much attention but little is known about the recovery of riparian vegetation after forest harvesting along headwater streams, despite the critical role vegetation plays in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jaridenv.2020.104220
Abstract: Abstract Ephemeral rivers are key features of desert ecosystems, providing shallow groundwater and occasional surface flow, but compared to perennial systems, the structure of riparian forests in ephemeral rivers and their interactions with the hydrologic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jher.2019.09.003
Abstract: Abstract A riparian vegetation dynamics model was proposed to consider the mutual influence of hydro-morphology and vegetation dynamics in a sand-bed river. The simulation model consists of four sub-models: river flow and sediment transport, recruitment,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.mambio.2019.09.001
Abstract: Abstract The riparian vegetation belt is one of the few remaining structures that provide coverage for wildlife in many anthropogenic landscapes. It provides shelter for many species and functions as corridors for dispersal. However, this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.rbe.2016.10.004
Abstract: Preserved riparian vegetation usually has greater environmental complexity than the riparian vegetation modified by human actions. These systems may have a greater availability and diversity of food resources for the species. Our objective was to… read more here.
