Fluvial Lowlands and the Environment: Cause for Concern -- Rivers and Landscapes: A Drainage Basin Framework -- Hydrologic and Geomorphic Processes in Fluvial Lowlands and Deltas -- Dams, Rivers, and the Environment -- Sequence of Channel Engineering and Geomorphic Adjustment --…
Pressure on large fluvial lowlands has increased tremendously during the past twenty years because of flood control, urbanization, and increased dependence upon floodplains and deltas for food production. This book examines human impacts on lowland rivers, and discusses how thes…
"Large fluvial lowlands are Earth's most distinctive and productive environments but are being rapidly degraded by human activities. Pressure on large rivers and deltas has increased tremendously over past decades because of flood control, urbanization, and increased dependence …
