Handbook for Stream Enhancement & Stewardship (Paperback, 2)

Decades, or even centuries, of changing and competing land uses
have left many of the world's streams degraded, in poor health, and
out of balance with the ever-shifting dynamics of their watersheds.
This is a basic resource intended to help individuals, groups,
organizations, companies, communities, and governments plan and
carry out environmentally sound, cost-effective stream corridor
assessment, enhancement, and stewardship programs. Using the
watershed as the basic unit of reference, the Handbook provides
ideas and information with which readers can assess and document
local stream conditions, learn about and evaluate methods of
enhancement, devise and implement enhancement plans, and then
maintain the stream and stream corridor in its enhanced state of
better health and balance. While not a comprehensive technical
manual for professionals trained in stream restoration, this
resource does provide a solid foundation by which volunteers may
become informed observers, advocates, and organizers of stream
enhancement programs and participants in their implementation.
