Comparing Reach Scale Hyporheic Exchange and Denitrification Induced by Instream Restoration Structures and Natural Streambed Morphology

A common water quality issue is an excess of nutrients which can lead to problems such as eutrophication. Stream restoration is one method by which improvements in water quality may be attempted. One strategy is increasing hyporheic zone flow at baseflow by addition of instream structures. The hy...
