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 ...

As India heads towards an ever-deepening water crisis, we seek to create efficient solutions for managing water resources. These include various initiatives to promote water conservation on the one hand, and on the other, to improve water use efficiency in industrial, domestic and agriculture section.

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 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 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

Restoration of floodplain rivers: The ‘Danube restoration project’
Regulated Rivers: Research & Management, 1999Restoration concepts for large river systems are currently in an early stage of development. Possibilities for, and constraints of, rehabilitation—both from a process-oriented view as well as from the nature conservation perspective—differ strongly according to the degree of anthropogenic changes.
