Monitoring



Reasons for river restoration

Mitigation of a pressure Land drainage
Hydromorphology Channel pattern/planform, Continuity of sediment transport, Flow velocities, Structure & condition of riparian/lake shore zones, Substrate conditions, Width & depth variation
Biology Fish: Abundance, Fish: Age structure, Invertebrates: Diversity
Physico-chemical Nutrient concentrations
Other reasons for the project Bank erosion


Measures

Structural measures
Bank/bed modifications Construction gravel bays, gravel for spawning grounds, Removal of sediment, Removal of fish barriers, Natural erosion embankments, er
Floodplain / River corridor Removal of sediments
Planform / Channel pattern Decrease sedimentation, Creation of pond
Other Fish habitat restoration, Improving fish migration, sediment ponds
Non-structural measures
Management interventions Reducing bank side collapse (source of sediment)
Social measures (incl. engagement)
Other
