Hyporheic exchange flow along pool-riffle sequences

The alternation of bathymetrlc lows (pools) and highs (riffles) along a stream plays a critical role in ecology. Besides providing a diversity of substrate material and local flow velocities, pool-riffle sequences (PRS) influence the living conditions in the near-stream sediments by inducing an infi...
