1 INTRODUCTION The presence of wood in river systems significantly supports biodiversity and ecosystem functioning because of its intrinsic relationship with water flow and sediment regimes (Abbe & Montgomery, 1996; Gurnell et al., 2002; Hickin, 1984; Wohl et al., 2019). Wood influences the form and sedimentary structure of river corridors, affecting sediment sorting, flow resistance and transport capacity.
