A Preliminary Global Automatic Burned-Area Algorithm at Medium Resolution in Google Earth Engine
(MDPI, 2021-10-26)
A preliminary version of a global automatic burned-area (BA) algorithm at medium spatial resolution was developed in Google Earth Engine (GEE), based on Landsat or Sentinel-2 reflectance images. The algorithm involves two ...
Updated Knowledge on Floods and Risk Management in the Middle Ebro River: the “Anthropocene” Context and River Resilience
(Universidad de La Rioja, Servicio de Publicaciones, 2021)
The floods of 2015 and 2018 in the Middle Ebro River have led to a rethinking and updating of the forecasting and management systems. The improvements in the flow measurement systems applied in this type of extreme phenomena ...
Indicators of resilience, evaluation and criteria for management and restoration
(Universidad de Murcia, 2021)
By resilience we understand the capacity of a system to absorb possible alterations and reorganise itself, while undergoing changes to essentially maintain the same function, structure, identity and feedback (Walker et al. ...
Nature-Human-River Relationships at the Ebro River and its Delta (Spain)
(UNESCO, 2023)
The Ebro is one of the largest river basins in Southern Europe, with an area of 85,000 km2, a river length of 930 km, and a population of more than three million people. Since ancient times, it has not only been a resource, ...
Good practices for the management and restoration of ephemeral streams
(Universidad de Murcia, 2021)
Segura (2014) and Segura and Sanchis (2015) warned us that in most projects geomorphological restoration is not addressed in all its complexity and there is frequently a lack of understanding of the hydrosedimentary dynamics ...
Physical Geography in river hydromorphological characterization, evaluation and restoration
(CNIG, 2020)
Spanish fluvial hydromorphology works have been developed in the present century and have been
approached for the most part from Physical Geography. This science provides an integral perspective of all of its factors, ...
Influence of catchment processes on fluvial morphology and river habitats
(AIL, 2011)
Fluvial morphology is conditioned by three basic elements: flow regime, sediment yield and valley characteristics. These
elements are controlled by factors operating at different spatial and time scales, within and outside ...
The IHG index for hydromorphological quality assessment of rivers and streams: updated version
(AIL, 2011)
[EN]An updated version of the IHG index is presented. The index is based on three appraisal parameters: 1) the functional quality of the fluvial system, including a) flow regime naturalness, b) sediment supply and mobility, ...
Hydromorphological characterization, assessment and monitoring in ephemeral streams: a case study in NE Iberian Peninsula
(International Association of Geomorphology, 2022-06-20)
Ephemeral streams are an important reality in the Mediterranean area, constituting more than 50% of the channel network in the eastern region of the Iberian Peninsula. The northernmost cases are located in the semi-arid ...
Ephemeral rivers, geomorfphological evolution and mapping. A case study in NE Iberian Peninsula
(International Association of Geomorphology, 2022-09)
Ephemeral rivers (IRES – Intermittent Rivers and Ephemeral Streams) differ from perennial rivers in that they do not have a base flow, therefore, when direct flow stop, they dry up. This condition is spatially accentuated ...
