Geomorphic Approaches to Integrated Floodplain Management of Lowland Fluvial Systems in North America and Europe

This volume provides a comprehensive perspective on geomorphic approaches to management of lowland alluvial rivers in North America and Europe. Many lowland rivers have been heavily managed for flood control and navigation for decades or centuries, resulting in engineered channels and embanked flood...
