River Restoration

2021
River restoration initiatives are now widespread across the world. The research efforts undertaken to support them are increasingly interdisciplinary, focusing on ecological, chemical, physical as well as societal issues. River Restoration: Political, Social, and Economic Perspectives provides a comprehensive overview of research in the field of river ...

Linkages between flow regime, biota, and ecosystem processes: Implications for river restoration

Science, 2019
River restoration guided by research Human activities have altered the flow regimes of many of Earth's rivers, with negative impacts on biodiversity, water quality, and ecological processes.

Facets and scales in river restoration: Nestedness and interdependence of hydrological, geomorphic, ecological, and biogeochemical processes.

Journal of Environmental Management, 2020
Although river restoration has increased rapidly, observations of successful ecological recovery are rare, mostly due to a discrepancy in the spatial scale of the impact and the restoration.

River restoration

Water Resources Research, 2005
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.

Restoring Our Rivers

Environmental Science & Technology, 2000
River ecosystems range in size from small streams to the vast Everglades. Leading ecologists view current efforts to restore and save these systems as flawed and too little too late.

Photo simulation of a river restoration: Relationships between public perception and ecosystem services

Rivers Research and Applications: an international journal devoted to river research and management, 2020
Evaluating the ecosystem services (ES) of rivers is a challenging process. We chose to evaluate photo simulations of a river restoration effort using two different approaches.

Geomorphic context in process‐based river restoration

Rivers Research and Applications: an international journal devoted to river research and management
Process‐based river restoration seeks to restore processes such as channel‐floodplain connectivity that create and maintain river corridor functions.

River restoration success: a question of perception

Ecological Applications, 2011
What 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.

Gravel replenishment and active-channel widening for braided-river restoration: The case of the Upper Drac River (France).

Science of the Total Environment, 2020
Massive gravel replenishment combined with active-channel widening could theoretically improve the morphological recovery of altered braided rivers but this restoration strategy was not yet tested in the field.
