They are fundamental in landscape development, and essential for water supply, irrigation, and transportation. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the geomorphological processes that shape rivers and that produce change in the form of rivers. It explores how the dynamics of rivers are being affected by anthropogenic change, including climate change, dam construction, and modification of rivers for flood control and land drainage. It discusses how concern about environmental degradation of rivers has led to the emergence of management strategies to restore and naturalize these systems, and how river management techniques work best when coordinated with the natural dynamics of rivers. This textbook provides an excellent resource for students, researchers, and professionals in fluvial geomorphology, hydrology, river science, and environmental policy. Provides a detailed overview of the dynamics of rivers, helping readers appreciate that rivers are not static, but change over time and space Contains in-depth treatment of the biophysical processes associated with river dynamics Examines the impact humans have on the dynamics of rivers, and discusses approaches to river management which work with the natural dynamics of rivers TABLE OF CONTENTS Preface Introduction 2.
