River Science is a rapidly developing interdisciplinary field at the interface of the natural sciences, engineering and socio-political sciences. It recognises that the sustainable management of contemporary rivers will increasingly require new ways of characterising them to enable engagement with the diverse range of stakeholders. This volume represents the outcome of research by many of the authors and their colleagues over the last 40 years and demonstrates the integral role that River Science now plays in underpinning our understanding of the functioning of natural ecosystems, and how societal demands and historic changes have affected these systems. The book will inform academics, policy makers and society in general of the benefits of healthy functioning riverine systems, and will increase awareness of the wide range of ecosystem goods and services they provide.

This state-of-the-art, research level text considers the growing volume of research at the interface of hydrology and ecology and focuses on: the evolution of hydroecology / ecohydrology process understanding hydroecological interactions, dynamics and linkages methodological approaches detailed case studies future research needs The editors and contributors are internationally recognised experts in hydrology and ecology from institutions across North America, South America, Australia, and Europe. Chapters provide a broad geographical coverage and bridge the traditional subject divide between hydrology and ecology. The book considers a range of organisms (plants, invertebrates and fish), provides a long-term perspective on contemporary and palaeo-systems, and emphasises wider research implications with respect to environmental and water resource management. Hydroecology and Ecohydrology is an indispensable resource for academics and postgraduate researchers in departments of physical geography, earth sciences, environmental science, environmental management, civil engineering, water resource management, biology, zoology, botany and ecology. It is also of interest to professionals working within environmental consultancies, organizations and national agencies.

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.
