Applications of the framework generate a coherent package of geomorphic information, providing a physical template for river rehabilitation activities. management and restoration of rivers is a rapidly growing topic for environmental scientists, geologists and ecologists - this book provides a learning tool with which to approach geomorphic applications to river management describes the es 606 $aRivers 606 $aStream ecology 606 $aWatershed management 606 $aGeomorphology 615 0$aRivers. 615 0$aStream ecology. 615 0$aWatershed management. 615 0$aGeomorphology. 676 $a551.48/3 700 $aBrierley$b Gary J$0719146 701 $aFryirs$b Kirstie A$0719147 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910145552403321 996 $aGeomorphology and river management$91395881 997 $aUNINA
