The sprouting of fluvially deposited trees is an important process for floodplain woodland regeneration along dynamic rivers. This paper investigates how tree size and relative elevation of the location of fluvially deposited trees affects
their survival. The survival of newly deposited trees along the River Tagliamento, Italy, was monitore over 3 field campaigns (2001, 2003 and 2005). A significant negative correlation was found between relative elevation and tree survival, while tree length
The AA. surveyed 20 stream reaches in Northern California with riparian corridors dominated by broadleaved trees and found that a high proportion of wood jams had key pieces that were still living. Living wood was capable of serving as a key piece
for a wood jam at a smaller size than dead wood and had a greater influence on channel morphology. Due to living wood, the range of tree species and sizes that provide stable and functional in-stream large wood may be broader than previously described.
the south shore of Lake Superior. The analyses suggest differences in relationships between geomorphic factors and LW and LWJ structure. Channel width, distance from headwaters, gradient and sinuosity were identified by regression tree analysis as the most
