This book covers links the theoretical and practical knowledge of people working with rivers, streams, and hydraulic structures to fluvial geomorphology. It provides a guide for professionals and students to acquire the knowledge and skills to rehabilitate rivers, streams, and waterways.

This book presents practical hydraulic and river engineering research along with fluvial geomorphological concepts, and links the theoretical and practical knowledge of people working every day with rivers, streams, and hydraulic structures to fluvial geomorphology. Besides providing a guide for professionals, this book also provides material for students to acquire the knowledge and skills to rehabilitate rivers, streams, and waterways.
