Lowland river-floodplain systems are characterized by a high degree of variability in both the frequency and period of inundation of various parts of the floodplain. Such variation should profoundly affect the processes underlying nutrient transformations in these systems. This paper explores the ef

Artificial drainage canals are often dug in large river floodplains to prevent winter inundation when groundwater level increases. Nothing is known about the biodiversity of the interstitial fauna of these artificial aquatic systems. The water chemistry and interstitial fauna of four drainage canals
Restoration concepts for large river systems are currently in an early stage of development. Possibilities for, and constraints of, rehabilitation-both from a process-oriented view as well as from the nature conservation perspective-differ strongly according to the degree of anthropogenic changes.

## Abstract Floodplains during nonβflood periods are less well documented than when flooding occurs, but nonβflood periods offer opportunities to investigate vegetation controls on water and nutrient cycling. In this study, we characterized water uptake and nutrient concentration patterns from 2005
