April 18, 2023. <\/strong>After a bit of a hiatus, news on the Rivers lab is back. Are you interested in learning more about how dam removal works? Check out this lecture from Desiree on “What it takes to take down a dam<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

August 20, 2020.<\/strong> If you care about social justice issues associated with flood management, you should care about reservoir operations. The same human\/political dimensions of reservoir management we saw at Oroville in 2017 are currently in play at Three Gorges Dam<\/a>.<\/p>\n

May 05, 2020.<\/strong> Congrats to Tessa Artruc on successfully defending her MS thesis! She developed a new retrogression model to evaluate The Effects of Drawdown Scenario on Lateral Erosion in a Reservoir.<\/p>\n

July 25, 2019. <\/b>Desiree’s work was cited in an NPR story on flood resilience of small communities. It is a well written article that documents some of the issues communities faced during the historical flooding on the Mississippi River this year. Check it out here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

June 27, 2019. <\/b>Tessa Artruc will be presenting her research on Modeling Lateral Erosion During Reservoir Drawdown<\/a> at SEDHYD 2019 today. Please come by and check it out if you are there.<\/p>\n

Oct<\/b>ober 02, 2018. <\/b>Happy 50th birthday to the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act! For more info, see:\u00a0https:\/\/www.rivers.gov\/wsr50\/<\/a><\/p>\n
