DOI: 10.1002/2017jg004050
Abstract: Biofilms, consisting of microorganisms and their secreted extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), serve as “ecosystem engineers” stabilizing sedimentary environments. Natural sediment bed provides an excellent substratum for biofilm growth. The porous structure and rich nutrients allow… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/2017ms001120
Abstract: Abstract A new paradigm of simulating suspended sediment load (SSL) with a Land Surface Model (LSM) is presented here. Five erosion and SSL algorithms were applied within a common LSM framework to quantify uncertainties and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9655
Abstract: Abstract Carbon accumulation in coastal wetlands is normally assessed by extracting a sediment core and estimating its carbon content and bulk density. Because carbon content and bulk density are functionally related, the latter can be… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/esp.4205
Abstract: Cosmogenic isotopes, short-lived radionuclides, elemental concentrations, and thermochronometeric indicators are measured in river sand to quantify erosion rates, trace sediment sources, and/or infer erosional processes. Interpretations of detrital sediment analyses are often based on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/esp.4239
Abstract: In the Swiss Alps, climatic changes have not only caused glacier retreat, but also likely increased sedimentation downstream of glaciers. This material either originates from below the glacier or from periglacial environments, exposed as glaciers… read more here.

Temporal variation in suspended sediment transport: linking sediment sources and hydro‐meteorological drivers
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"
DOI: 10.1002/esp.4682
Abstract: Suspended sediment concentrations (SSC) in rivers are variable in time due to interacting soil erosion and sediment transport processes. While many hydro-meteorological variables are correlated to suspended sediment concentrations, interpretation of these correlations in terms… read more here.
