How to use the information in the system
The information presented in this pages has been compiled thanks to the contributions of scientists and water authorities across Europe. It is intended to aid practitioners in river rehabilitation and restoration projects by presenting experiences about success or failure of different restoration and rehabilitation measures. The information is available for use with due acknowledgement of the original source.
