Resistance, resilience, and community dynamics in mediterranean-climate streams
Y Hershkovitz, A Gasith - Hydrobiologia, 2013 - Springer
Streams and rivers in mediterranean-climate regions (med-rivers) are subjected to
sequential, yet contrasting hydrologic disturbances of drying and flooding. Although …

Hydrogeomorphic response to extreme rainfall in headwater systems: Flash floods and debris flows
Flash floods and debris flows develop at space and time scales that conventional
observation systems for rainfall, streamflow and sediment discharge are not able to monitor …

Fingerprinting changes of source apportionments from mixed land uses in stream sediments before and after an exceptional rainstorm event
The loss of fertile topsoil is one of the principal soil degradation problems in mountain
agroecosystems worldwide. Soil erosion rates reach their maximum during exceptional …

Variations in flood magnitude–effect relations and the implications for flood risk assessment and river management
JM Hooke - Geomorphology, 2015 - Elsevier
In spite of major physical impacts from large floods, present river management rarely takes
into account the possible dynamics and variation in magnitude–impact relations over time in …

Controls on the size and geometry of landslides: Insights from discrete element numerical simulations
We use numerical two-dimensional discrete element method (DEM) to study the controls on
the size and geometry of an individual landslide. This method allows us to analyze the …

Spatio‐temporal patterns of channel changes in response to a major flood event: the case of the Magra River (central–northern Italy)
L Nardi, M Rinaldi - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract On October 25th 2011, the Magra River (central–northern Italy) was affected by a
significant flood event with an estimated return interval ranging from 30 to 200 years. This …

Geomorphological impacts of an extreme flood in SE Spain
JM Hooke - Geomorphology, 2016 - Elsevier
Long-term field studies in semiarid ephemeral streams are rare. These geomorphic data are
essential for understanding the nature of the processes in order to develop modelling for risk …
