Fuzzy-logic indicators for riverbed de-clogging suggest ecological benefits of large wood

Rivers provide dynamic habitats with ecological niches, particularly in their mobile sand, gravel, and cobble riverbed patches that create an active hyporheic zone. Natural or artificial deposition of fine sediment may clog the porous matrix of the hyporheic zone, impairing exchange processes betwee...
