Junk ; Peter B. Bayley ; Richard E. Sparks Canadá National Research Council of Canada 1989 Publication speciale canadienne des sciences halieutiques et aquatiques The principal driving force responsible for the existence, productivity, and interactions of the major biota in river-floodplain systems is the flood pulse. A spectrum of geomorphological and hydrological conditions produces flood pulses, which range from unpredictable to predictable and from short to long duration. The flood pulse is a "batch" process and is distinct from concepts that emphasize the continuous processes in flowing water environments, such as the river continuum concept. Floodplains are distinct because they do not depend on upstream processing inefficiencies of organic matter, although their nutrient pool is influenced by periodic lateral exchange of water and sediments with the main channel Ichthyology 119207 Ictiología 9239 Inundaciones 4351 Flood Plains 147683 Flooding 147684 Hidrology 147027 Fresh Water 121283 Ecology 117438 Rivers 147249 Canada 5388 CR (INICN)39662 234825 0 0 0 0 INICN INICN GEN 2007-08-01 0 16 [40] WOL ej.1 61.01-001595 CR 234825 234825 AR-ReUNN spa AR-ReUNN aacr2 0 0 0 0 INICN INICN GEN 2007-08-01 0 16 [40] WOL ej.1 61.01-001595 CR
