It explores the multi-disciplinary nature of river channel management in relation to modern management techniques that bear the background of the entire drainage basin in mind, use channel restoration where appropriate, and are designed to be sustainable. River Channel Management is divided into five sections: AThe Introduction outlines the need for river channel management . ARetrospective Review offers an overview of twentieth century engineering methods and the ways that river channel systems operate. ARealisation explains how greater understanding of river channel adjustments, channel hazards and river basin planning created a context for twenty-first century management. ARequirements for Management explains and examines environmental assessment, restoration-based approaches, and methods that work towards 'design with nature' AFinal Revision speculates about prospects for twenty-first century river channel management.
