The interactive effects of climate, land cover change and damming on the flow regime and fine sediment dynamics of a tropical river

Tropical river ecosystems are being increasingly modified by the accelerated construction of hydropower dams. Dams are known to have detrimental effects on downstream flows and sediment transport, with long-lasting implications for fluvial processes, habitats and ecosystems. The tropics are also exp...
