Title: | Vision Generation: What Do We Seek to Achieve in River Rehabilitation? | Contributor(s): | Ryder, Darren (author); Brierley, Gary J (author); Hobbs, Richard (author); Kyle, Garreth (author); Leishman, Michelle (author) | Publication Date: | 2008 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/2553 | Abstract: | 'If you don't know where you are going all roads lead there.' --Roman Proverb. Given the intimate link between rivers and their catchments, river rehabilitation is a complex and difficult task involving practitioners from multiple scientific disciplines, managers, and community stakeholders. Developing a vision or a guiding image in the early stages of a rehabilitation project provides a mechanism with which to successfully direct all stakeholders toward a common goal. As outlined in chapter 1, rehabilitation efforts target realistic improvements in river condition, framing the most desirable outcome in relation to available resources. | Publication Type: | Book Chapter | Source of Publication: | River Futures: An Integrative Scientific Approach to River Repair, p. 16-27 | Publisher: | Island Press | Place of Publication: | Washington, United States of America | ISBN: | 1597261130 1597261122 |
