Guidelines for rehabilitation and management of floodplains: Ecology and safety combined

The first three chapters of this report offer introductions, each from their own viewpoint. In the first chapter, the focus point is the river landscape in general. Amongst others the history of human interference in the river landscape, theories on the ecological functioning of rivers and summaries of hydrological and morphological processes...

Irma-Sponge proposal

After the flooding events in the recent years in the Rhine and Meuse basin and the subsequently developed action plans, awareness has grown that the issue of flood risk management has to be considered in an integrated, transnational context where hydraulic, ecological and socio-economic functions of the river system are taken into account from...

Lecture notes on "The Role of Rivers to Mankind"

It is the task and target of River Engineering as a profession to provide all the tools for arriving at an optimum utilization of the potential resources, optimum in the sense of promoting the beneficial characteristics of the river and eliminating or at least checking the adverse qualities. To strive for this aim, there must be a scientific...
