=Introduction to Geomorphology and Applications to River Restoration=

//by R. Levine//
//Snippet// Time, space and the forces that drive and resist change are essential to understanding the long-term functionality of river systems. The field of fluvial geomorphology provides the tools to understand each of these variables. The geomorphic perspective may be a critical component to successful restoration projects.

//by L. Begay//
//Snippet// Fluvial geomorphology is an evolving field that is interdisciplinary and nature. Much of the current thinking in the field focuses on fluvial processes and how they affect river form and channel patterns. The resulting channel forms have formed the basis of several river classification systems. Fluvial geomorphology provides useful tools to assess the state of a river and make sound management decisions.
