If we could rewind the tape of species evolution around the world and play it forward over hundreds of millions of years to the present day, we would see biodiversity clustering around regions of ...

Rivers choose their path based on erosion, a discovery that could transform flood planning and restoration
Rivers are Earth's arteries. Water, sediment and nutrients self-organize into diverse, dynamic channels as they journey from the mountains to the sea. Some rivers carve out a single pathway, while ...
During droughts, Australia's inland rivers dry up, leaving waterholes as the only wet places in a parched landscape. Fish, turtles, crayfish and other aquatic animals retreat to these vital refuges.

In recent years, as river-borne sediment transport has decreased, land loss in estuarine areas has become increasingly severe. Particularly from 2009 to 2022, due to the reduced sediment load from the ...
Every spring, melting snow and heavy rainfall brings a higher risk of flooding and riverbank erosion to parts of Canada. Bank erosion is responsible for a significant portion of annual flood damage in ...
A new study of the freshwater greenfin darter fish suggests river erosion can be a driver of biodiversity in tectonically inactive regions. New findings could explain biodiversity hotspots in ...
