Odra. Actions for environmental restoration and flood control in the lower basin of the Odra River (Burgos)
Key features of the case study
Site description
The agricultural development of the last decades has modified the Odra fluvial system so deeply, consequently the river planform has changed, also loosing part of its lateral functionality due to the construction of lateral levees, resulting in lower inundability of the floodplain and invasion of the public hydraulic domain in comparison with a reference state. The disapearance of the riparian corridor makes easier the flooding frequency, even though the high flows are not necessarily too high.
