Considerations in Stream Restoration

Publication: Engineering Approaches to Ecosystem Restoration

Abstract

Stream systems are constantly changing. Some changes are the result of natural catastrophic events such as floods, debris flows, or fires in the watershed basin. Often times, however, the changes are a result of man-made activities such as urbanization within the watershed, development within the floodplain, and overgrazing of the river banks. These changes often result in the loss of riparian habitat, wildlife habitat, stream and bank stability, and changes in flooding conditions.
