dc.description.abstractFloodplains are a distinct component of the riverine landscape. Their structure and function have traditionally been viewed through the lens of a temporal paradigm; a paradigm where change over time, driven by hydrology, creates complexity in floodplain ecosystems. This thesis challenges this traditional view of floodplains, and argues for a paradigm shift in floodplain research. It is proposed that the spatial complexity of floodplains is equally as important as complexity over time, and a greater appreciation of the spatial complexity of floodplain landscapes is required in order to advance our understanding of these landscapes and their ecosystems. The spatial dimension of floodplain complexity has largely been overlooked under a temporal paradigm; thus, our understanding of floodplain complexity has been limited.en
