Lateral exchange of water and nitrogen along a beaver-dammed stream draining a Rocky Mountain valley

Dynamic exchange of water across the stream-riparian zone interface is important in increasing stream water transit time through basins and enhancing redox-sensitive biogeochemical reactions that influence downstream water quality and ecosystem health. Such exchange may be enhanced by beaver dams, w...
