Application of fluvial relationships to planning and design of channel modifications

Many of the environmental problems associated with channel modifications can be anticipated if known fluvial relationships are considered early in the planning process. Plan modifications or corrective measures can be employed to prevent environmental degradation and improve project performance. The fluvial system is reviewed from a geomorphic perspective. Functional fluvial relationships are described and their use in planning and design of flood channels is demonstrated.
