The importance of fluvial geomorphology

The alteration of watersheds across North America has had detrimental effects to riverine systems, as many formerly pristine and stable streams have begun exhibiting signs of degradation and stress. Some of these signs include bank erosion, flooding and valley wall failure. The increased cost associated with river management, paired with a growing public concern over the health and safety implications of a degraded environment as well as emergent demand for recreational opportunities has instigated a movement towards river restoration and rehabilitation. Today, resource managers have a myriad of restoration techniques available to them. The question now is often not whether restoration techniques should be applied to a channel, but which techniques are most suitable for the specific conditions of a particular stream.
