The concentration of materials and energy within cities is an inevitable consequence of
dense populations and their per capita requirements for food, fiber, and fuel. As the world …

River restoration is a rapidly maturing focus of scientific and practitioner activity, which draws
on a long history of intervention in watercourses for varied economic and social reasons …

This paper highlights some recent trends in vegetation hydrodynamics, focusing on
conditions within channels and spanning spatial scales from individual blades, to canopies …

River restoration is at the forefront of applied hydrologic science. However, many river
restoration projects are conducted with minimal scientific context. We propose two themes …

Rivers provide a special suite of goods and services valued highly by the public that are
inextricably linked to their flow dynamics and the interaction of flow with the landscape. Yet …

This second edition provides the latest emerging theories and ideas in the science of
restoration ecology. Fully one-third longer than the first edition and comprehensive in scope …

Coastal and inland waters are continuing to decline in many parts of the world despite major
efforts made to restore them. This is due in part to the inadequate role that ecological …

Rather than explaining ecosystem structure and function under a single “unified theory,”
ecologists deploy a strong and diverse body of theory to address a wide range of ecological …

Research at the intersection of hydrology and ecology is central to a future in which human
and ecological needs for water are met. We briefly identify several compelling research …
