© 2016 This erratum concerns Eq. (1) used in Paul et al. [3] which is the same as Eq. (1) in Paul and Henry [4]. A three-point bending test with clamped ends was performed on macroalga blade samples. As suggested in Fig. 1, this mechanical test was c... Read More about Erratum to “Geometrical and mechanical properties of four species of northern European brown macroalgae” [Coast.

Vegetation can have an important role in controlling channel planform, through its effects on channel roughness, and root-reinforcement of bank and bar materials. Along the Platte River in central Nebraska, USA, The Platte River Recovery Implementati...

Streambank erosion can be an important form of channel change in unstable alluvial environments. It should be accounted for in geomorphic studies, river restoration, dam removal, and channel maintenance projects. Recently, one-dimensional and two-dim...

Understanding channel bifurcation mechanics is of great importance for predicting and managing multichannel river processes and avulsion in distributary river deltas. To date, research on river channel bifurcations has focused on factors determining... Read More about Near-bed and surface flow division patterns in experimental river bifurcations.

Geometrical and mechanical properties of four species of northern European brown macroalgae (2013)

Aquatic vegetation interacts with the flow by posing an obstruction and in return experiences drag and is reconfigured by acting forces. It is suggested that plant buoyancy and stiffness affect these bio-physical interactions and hence should be cons...
