The Blue-Green Path to Urban Flood Resilience (2019)
Journal Article
O'Donnell, E., Thorne, C., Ahilan, S., Arthur, S., Birkinshaw, S., Butler, D., …Wright, N. (2019). The Blue-Green Path to Urban Flood Resilience. Blue-Green Systems, 1(1), 172-189. https://doi.org/10.2166/bgs.2019.199

Achieving urban flood resilience at local, regional and national levels requires a transformative change in planning, design and implementation of urban water systems. Flood risk, wastewater and stormwater management should be re-envisaged and transf... Read More about The Blue-Green Path to Urban Flood Resilience.

Biomic river restoration: A new focus for river management (2019)
Journal Article
Johnson, M. F., Thorne, C. R., Castro, J. M., Mathias Kondolf, G., Mazzacano, C. S., Rood, S. B., & Westbrook, C. (2020). Biomic river restoration: A new focus for river management. River Research and Applications, 36(1), 3-12. https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.3529

River management based solely on physical science has proven to be unsustainable and unsuccessful, evidenced by the fact that the problems this approach intended to solve (e.g., flood hazards, water scarcity, and channel instability) have not been so...

The stream evolution triangle: Integrating geology, hydrology, and biology (2019)
Journal Article
Castro, J. M., & Thorne, C. R. (2019). The stream evolution triangle: Integrating geology, hydrology, and biology. River Research and Applications, 35(4), 315-326. https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.3421

The foundations of river restoration science rest comfortably in the fields of geology, hydrology, and engineering, and yet, the impetus for many, if not most, stream restoration projects is biological recovery. Although Lane's stream balance equatio... Read More about The stream evolution triangle: Integrating geology, hydrology, and biology.
