Sommario/riassunto

This book presents the select proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on River Corridor Research and Management (RCRM 2023). It describes various topics on fluvio-hydro-ecological processes of river systems. The topics covered include river dynamics and morphological changes, river health and ecological aspects and satellite remote sensing for river corridor studies. The book also discusses the morphological behavior of gravel and sand-bed rivers, hydrological and hydraulics modeling and other important aspects of riverine ecology. The book will be a valuable reference for researchers and professionals working in the areas of river science.
