Principles of geomorphic disturbance and recovery in response to storms

Abstract: ABSTRACT:The most important geomorphic responses to storms are qualitative changes in system state. Minor storms produce no state change or very rapid recovery to pre-storm state, and extinction events wipe out the system. In other cases disturbance results in a state change, which may be transitional (change to a previously existing state), state space expansion (change to a new state), and clock-resetting events that return the system to its initial state. Recovery pathways are much more varied than the mono… Show more

“…Although the short time period in other ecosystem types, which are often cited as creating or maintaining heterogeneity (Foster, Knight, & Franklin, 1998;Romme & Knight, 1982). In the case of Elbow River, the disturbance appears to be a clock-resetting event that returns the system to an initial state with complete geomorphic and habitat turnover (Phillips & Van Dyke, 2016). In the case of Elbow River, the disturbance appears to be a clock-resetting event that returns the system to an initial state with complete geomorphic and habitat turnover (Phillips & Van Dyke, 2016).…”

“…Due to their inherent rarity and unpredictability, the effects of large infrequent disturbances such as floods are difficult to study reliably and remain poorly understood (Church, 1980;Turner & Dale, 1998). In particular, information on geomorphic process rates and recovery trajectories is needed to inform flood risk management and maintain ecosystem services in an age of climate extremes (Gaston and Blackburn 1999;Naylor et al, 2017;Phillips & Van Dyke, 2016).

“…The nature and configuration of sensitivity and connectivity controls within a geomorphic system will determine the ability of that system to respond to the range of possible disturbance events (Figure ). The severity and distribution of geomorphic responses can reshape the ability for system response so that subsequent events impact the system at a different state, with a different ability to respond to, and recover from, disturbance events (Schumm, ; Downs and Gregory, ; Phillips and Van Dyke, ). Over time, the reactive relationship between geomorphic response and response ability creates a history or memory of antecedent conditions that influence the ability of a system to respond to any given event (Pickup and Rieger, ; Dollar, ; Brierley, ; Fryirs, ) (Figure ).…”
