Description

Ecohydraulics: An Integrated Approachprovides a researchlevel text which highlights recent developments of this emergingand expanding field. With a focus on interdisciplinaryresearch the text examines:- the evolution and scope of ecohydraulics interactions between hydraulics, hydrology, fluvialgeomorphology and aquatic ecology the application of habitat modelling in ecohydraulicstudies state of the art methodological developments andapproaches detailed case studies including fish passage design and themanagement of environmental flow regimes research needs and the future of ecohydraulics research The contributions offer broad geographic coverage to encapsulatethe wide range of approaches, case studies and methods used toconduct ecohydraulics research. The book considers a range ofspatial and temporal scales of relevance and aquatic organismsranging from algae and macrophytes to macroinvertebrates andfish. River management and restoration are also considered indetail, making this volume of direct relevance to those concernedwith cutting edge research and its application for water resourcemanagement. Aimed at academics and postgraduate researchers in departmentsof physical geography, earth sciences, environmental science,environmental management, civil engineering, biology, zoology,botany and ecology; Ecohydraulics: An Integrated Approachwill be of direct relevance to academics, researchers andprofessionals working in environmental research organisations,national agencies and consultancies.
