The study of sediment transport and riverbed dynamics is central to understanding the evolution of fluvial systems and their response to environmental change. Bedload movement, influenced by flow ...

Mangrove vegetation, which grows naturally in subtropical shorelines, provides a wide range of ecosystem functions such as reducing coastal erosion, promoting biodiversity, and removing nitrogen, ...

The way rivers function is significantly affected by how much sediment they transport and where it gets deposited. River sediment -- mostly sand, silt, and clay -- plays a critical ecological role, as ...

How mangrove roots interact with water flow is believed to be a key element in mitigating coastal erosion. Researchers are the first to quantify the optimal mangrove root hydrodynamic with a ...
