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.

Rivers, the fluvial landscape enabled both ancient and modern societies to develop and flourish in the proximity of rivers which fundamentally shape the present earth with all its living and nonliving entities including human being. However, humans have spatially and temporally altered rivers since time immortal because of intensive use of the rivers ...

Assessing the context and ecological effects of river restoration – A meta-analysis
Ecological Engineering: The Journal of Ecotechnology, 2019A large number of qualitative and semi-quantitative analyses have been performed to summarize the effects of river restoration, while systematic and quantitative assessments of the literature on river restoration are still rare.

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 ...

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 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
