DOI: 10.1016/j.gecco.2020.e01288

Abstract: Abstract Although channelized urban streams provide aesthetic and economic value, they reduce biodiversity and alter the habitats of aquatic organisms. Spur dikes not only prevent the erosion of riverbanks, but also generally improve aquatic habitats.… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics"

DOI: 10.18869/acadpub.jafm.73.238.26175

Abstract: Spur dikes are used for river training purposes. To meet the navigability of rivers, the mean annual flow is considered; hence, in terms of river flooding, spur dikes are necessarily submerged. Considering the importance of… read more here.
