Abstract River restoration is gaining significance as an approach for river system management, even in urban areas, where the flood risks and morphological imbalances are more evident. In cities, the highly modified environment and the lack of open spaces make it harder to apply the concept of river restoration in its whole extent, raising doubts ...

River restoration is at the forefront of applied hydrologic science. However, many river restoration projects are conducted with minimal scientific context. We propose two themes around which a research agenda to advance the scientific basis for river restoration can be built.

River restoration success: a question of perception
Ecological Applications, 2011What defines success and failure of river restoration measures is a strongly debated topic in restoration science, but standardized approaches to evaluate either are still not available. The debate is usually centered on measurable parameters, which adhere to scientific objectivity.

River Restoration in European Lowland River Systems
1998In the discussion on river restoration, an interesting change is gradually taking place in the way river ecologists and hydrologists are being consulted. Traditionally, ecologists were engaged mainly in the survey of remaining natural assets and on the prediction of environmental effects. This has greatly enhanced nature conservation.

Restoration of the Kishon River
Toxicological & Environmental Chemistry, 1989Abstract The Kishon River, which is now an industrial sewage canal, may be turned into a recreational area in two stages, and by approximately 20 million dollar investment. Stage A: The wastewater is treated in order to avoid polluted effluents from entering the river.

River restoration and geomorphology
Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, 1994AbstractThe restoration or rehabilitation of rivers is currently an expanding area of investment by public water management bodies in the USA and EC. This position has developed from the rapid growth in environmental (and particularly water) awareness, the rise of accountability for environmental degradation within the legislative framework of water ...

River systems (river restoration/rehabilitation)
Rivers and river floodplains are subject to human uses that cause pollution, degradation of coastal areas, straightening the river course, draining floodplains, building levees, using water for irrigation, sediment dredging, fisheries reduction, etc. Land use/land cover changes coupled with local climate change additionally causes modification in the ...Kašanin-Grubin, Milica +3 more

The biological community of a river ecosystem is determined by the characteristics of both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The terrestrial ecosystem depends mainly on the plant community and the aquatic ecosystem comprises aquatic plants, benthic invertebrates, and vertebrates.
