CONCLUSIONS: MANAGING TEMPERATE FLOODPLAINS FOR MULTIPLE BENEFITS --References --Geospatial Data Sources --IndexFloodplains provides an overview of floodplains and their management in temperate regions. It synthesizes decades of research on floodplain ecosystems, explaining hydrologic, geomorphic, and ecological processes and how under appropriate management these processes can provide benefits to society ranging from healthy fish populations to flood-risk reduction. Drawing on the framework of reconciliation ecology, the authors explore how new concepts for floodplain ecosystem restoration and management can increase these benefits. Additionally, they use case studies from California's Central Valley and other temperate regions to show how innovative management approaches are reshaping rivers and floodplains around the world.FloodplainsFloodplainsCaliforniaCentral ValleyFloodplain ecologyFloodplain managementEarth (Planet)SurfaceProcessingcalifornia.central valley.conservation.ecology.ecosystem restoration.ecosystem.environment.environmentalism.fish populations.fishing.flood risk.flood.floodplains.geomorphology.hydrology.land management.life sciences.natural resources.nature.nonfiction.preservation.reconciliation ecology.rivers.science.water management.water table.water.Floodplains.FloodplainsFloodplain ecology.Floodplain management.333.91/7Opperman Jeffrey J.1528415Larsen Eric W.Manfree Amber D.Moyle Peter B.DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910795921203321Floodplains3771976UNINA
