Re-introduction of structurally complex wood jams promotes channel and habitat recovery from overwidening: Implications for river conservation (2018)
Journal Article

Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Large wood is a powerful geomorphic agent in rivers, providing important habitat functions for a range of aquatic organisms, but has been subject to a long history of removal. Internationally, approaches to... Read More about Re-introduction of structurally complex wood jams promotes channel and habitat recovery from overwidening: Implications for river conservation.

Development of ST: REAM: A reach-based stream power balance approach for predicting alluvial river channel adjustment (2015)
Journal Article

© 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.. River channel sediment dynamics are important in integrated catchment management because changes in channel morphology resulting from sediment transfer have important implications for many river functions. However, a... Read More about Development of ST: REAM: A reach-based stream power balance approach for predicting alluvial river channel adjustment.

Water quality in two Icelandic rivers: The influence of impoundment, agriculture, glaciation and permafrost (2015)
Journal Article

© IWA Publishing 2015. The water quality of Icelandic rivers is controlled by a number of natural and anthropogenic factors interacting at complex spatial and temporal scales. This article presents the findings of a study into the water quality of tw...

Understanding the influence of slope on the threshold of coarse grain motion: Revisiting critical stream power (2011)
Journal Article

This paper investigates the slope-dependent variation in critical mean bed shear stress for coarse grain motion, and evaluates stream power per unit bed area as an alternative threshold parameter. Explanations for observed slope dependency and existi... Read More about Understanding the influence of slope on the threshold of coarse grain motion: Revisiting critical stream power.

The effects of variability in bank material properties on riverbank stability: Goodwin Creek, Mississippi (2008)
Journal Article

Bank retreat is an important area of research within fluvial geomorphology and is a land management problem of global significance. The Yazoo River Basin in Mississippi is one example of a system which is experiencing excessive erosion and bank insta...
