Saving the Dammed
Disconnected Rivers
This important and accessible book surveys the history and present condition of river systems across the United States, showing how human activities have impoverished our rivers and impaired the connections between river worlds and other ecosystems. Ellen Wohl begins by introducing the basic physical, chemical, and biological processes operating in rivers. She then addresses changes in rivers resulting from settlement and expansion, describes the…

Disconnected rivers
Conquering a New World
This chapter explains how the earliest human inhabitants reached America and modified the physical and biological environments of the rivers. Sedentary agricultural communities first appear in the archeological record of North America more than 2,000 years ago. As with agricultural people elsewhere in the world, these first farmers affected rivers more than their hunter-gatherer predecessors. The Hohokam of central Arizona developed an extensive …

Estimating Flood Magnitude in Ungauged Mountain Channels, Nepal
Indirect estimates of flood magnitude may be useful for resource management along ungauged stream channels. Such estimates may be developed either from statistical analyses of regional hydrologic data or from physical measurements of channel characteristics. Channel characteristics that record flood magnitude include erosional and depositional features indicative of peak stage. These peak stage estimates may be converted into discharge estimates …
