editReviewers - Is this still too technical? Which bits exactly? Experts - Is this still a good representation of the facts? 131.111.16.20 (talk) 11:55, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Underflow or hyporheic flow
editI added the synonym "underflow" which should be equivalent of "hyporheic flow". Although in Environmental Dictionary 2004 (http://mot.kielikone.fi/mot/endic/netmot.exe?UI=fied&height=165) it is referred as follows: "movement of water through a pervious stratum under the bed of a river. Maybe there are any nuances about it"--Bioneer1 (talk) 20:09, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
Observations and suggestions for improvements
editThe following observations and suggestions for improvements were collected, following expert review of the article within the Science, Tecnology, Society and Wikipedia course at the Politecnico di Milano, in June 2020.
I did find the article (in the English version and in its Italian counterpart) meaningful and including appropriate referencing. I spotted a minor inconsistency (Habit instead of Habitat) and, other than this one, the use of English is appropriate. I am not entirely sure about the third picture in the gallery, as it depicts fish, whose connection with the organisms living within the hyporheic region is not entirely clear. There is a nice balance between technical and popular terminology, thus making the article accessible to a wide audience.
