Monitoring



Reasons for river restoration

Mitigation of a pressure Loss of lateral connection, Ecosystem degradation
Hydromorphology Channel pattern/planform, Quantity & dynamics of flow, Flow velocities, Continuity of sediment transport
Biology Invertebrates: Abundance, Invertebrates: Diversity, Fish: Abundance, Fish: Species composition
Physico-chemical
Other reasons for the project WFD status for the fish


Measures

Structural measures
Bank/bed modifications Planting
Floodplain / River corridor Removal of embankments
Planform / Channel pattern Creation of side channel, Creation of groynes
Other
Non-structural measures
Management interventions
Social measures (incl. engagement)
Other
