Sentence examples for reducing stream from inspiring English sources

This study aims at investigating the capability and performance of GI in reducing stream bank erosion in the Blackland Prairie ecosystem.

There was a strong negative relationship between invertebrate richness and distance downstream, driven by a gradient of reducing stream power and substratum particle size along the streams.

To summarize, these results present simple and accurate methods of quantifying and analyzing the effect of urbanization as well as the hydraulic benefits of GI in reducing stream bank erosion throughout the reduction in total volumes of runoff, exceedance of shear stress and peak flow.

Thomas et al. (2003) estimated that 25 50% of Idaho streams are nutrient limited and Achord, Levin & Zabel (2003) found evidence of density-dependent mortality at population sizes well below historical levels, suggesting nutrient deficits as a limiting factor capable of reducing stream rearing carrying capacities.

The effects of pre-reduction and ageing treatments in cycled redox feedstreams at 1173 K, where the composition of oxidizing and reducing streams and cooling environment were changed, were investigated.

In these areas, it was concluded that downcutting was in response to reduced sediment supply from slopes and perhaps to reduced stream flow as a result of increasing interception by the closing (or closed) canopy forest (Peacock and Turner, 2003; Peacock and Marden, 2004).

A combination of lower precipitation and high temperatures over the last three years, coupled with relatively little snow, has reduced stream flows in the region to well below normal.

Law (1956), a water supply engineer, reported reduced stream flow into a reservoir whose catchment had been afforested.

Forest plantations generally reduce stream flow and lower the water table level because their water use is higher than the previous land cover types they are replacing.

But such were the rates of acidification and salinization of soil that reduced productivity and, in the case of salinity, reduced stream quality and threatened adjacent natural ecosystems.

The most severe period of reduced stream flow occurred during the Medieval Warm Period (ca. mid-1200s CE) and persisted for ∼70 years.
