Spatial heterogeneity as a component of river geomorphic complexity

E Wohl - Progress in Physical Geography, 2016 - journals.sagepub.com
One component of geomorphic complexity results from spatial heterogeneity in river
corridors. The characteristics of this form of complexity have important implications for …

Potential and actual geomorphic complexity of restored headwater streams in northern Sweden

LE Polvi, C Nilsson, EM Hasselquist - Geomorphology, 2014 - Elsevier
Stream restoration usually relies on ecological theories presuming that increased habitat
heterogeneity leads to higher biodiversity. However, to test this hypothesis a quantitative …

Range of variability of channel complexity in urban, restored and forested reference streams

BG Laub, DW Baker, BP Bledsoe… - Freshwater …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Channel complexity is an important ecological property of stream systems and is often
