Many high-mountain rivers in Asia transport more sediment downstream compared to a few years ago. Changes in sediment levels have a particularly strong impact on agriculture, water quality, flood ...
Researchers have devised a better way to measure how fast sediment flows in rivers -- information that can help scientists and planners better prepare for flooding and weather-related events, ...
Rivers in northern Sweden do not always become wider or richer in species further downstream. Natural barriers shape the flow ...
On May 12, 2008, the magnitude 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake shook central China, its destructive tremors spreading from the flank of the Longmen Shan, or Dragon's Gate Mountains, along the eastern margin ...
Researchers at Simon Fraser University (SFU) and The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have devised a better way to measure how fast sediment flows in rivers—information that can help ...
New research from SFU’s Jeremy Venditti dives into the science of going with the flow predicting the evolution of the Earth’s surface. Researchers at Simon Fraser University (SFU) and The ...
