Understanding Processes and Downstream Linkages of Headwater Systems (2002, background): “Sediment transport from tributaries alters patterns in the downstream fining of substrate size (Rice et al. 2001).”
A STREAM EVOLUTION MODEL INTEGRATING HABITAT AND ECOSYSTEM BENEFITS (2014, background): “Unsurprisingly, confluences have been found to be both ecological hotspots (Benda et al., 2004) and places where ecological communities shift (Rice et al., 2001).”
The Network Dynamics Hypothesis: How Channel Networks Structure Riverine Habitats (2004, background): “The morphological conditions near channel junctions differ from those in reaches located upstream or downstream; confluences are agents of habitat formation and increased morphological heterogeneity (figure 2; Rice et al. 2001, Benda et al. 2003a).”
Linking Scales in Stream Ecology (2006, background): “Features of local populations and communities have been related to attributes of stream networks (Dunham and Rieman 1999, Rice et al. 2001, Fernandes et al. 2004), and conceptual and analytical tools for describing and predicting network patterns are becoming more widely available (Pringle 1997,…”
Influence of habitat heterogeneity on the distribution of larval Pacific lamprey (Lampetra tridentata) at two spatial scales (2004, background): “larval distribution patterns, as has been shown for benthic invertebrates (Rice et al., 2001).”
Disturbance and Aquatic Biodiversity: Reconciling Contrasting Views (2006, background): “…might show obvious discontinuities and inconsistencies arising from atypical local topography, for example, or confluences with tributaries, where additional loads of water and sediments can create bedforms that are more typical of reaches farther upstream in the watershed (Rice et al. 2001).”
Effects of post-wildfire erosion on channel environments, Boise River, Idaho (2003, background): “…discontinuum of habitats is also reinforced by field measurement and modeling that indicate the importance of channel network structure, especially tributary junctions, on channel morphology and aquatic organisms (Minshall et al., 1985; Benda and Dunne, 1997b; Rice et al., 2001; Poole, 2002).”
Basin-scale availability of salmonid spawning gravel as influenced by channel type and hydraulic roughness in mountain catchments (2004, background): “Moreover, network structure and the location of tributary inputs can influence the spatial distribution of sediment size, quantity, and consequent aquatic habitat (Rice et al. 2001a, 2001b; Martin et al. 2004).”
Tributary control of physical heterogeneity and biological diversity at river confluences (2006, background): “An important corollary is that ecosystem change along any drainage pathway is conditioned by the structure of the drainage network (Bravard and Gilvear 1996; Rice et al. 2001a).”
