Environmental Flows: Saving Rivers in the Third Millennium
Abstract
Environmental Flows describes the timing, quality, and quantity of water flows required to sustain freshwater and estuarine ecosystems and the human well-being and livelihoods that depend upon them. It answers crucial questions about the flow of water within and between different kinds of ecosystems. What happens when the flow or the availability of water is curtailed or diverted, either naturally or by human activity? How will climate change alter the availability of water and impact aquatic ecosystems? Methodological developments from the simplest hydrological formulas to large-scale frameworks that inform water management make this book a must-read for water managers and freshwater and estuarine ecologists contending with ever-changing conditions influencing the flow of water.

The river is seen as a source of water rather than as an ecological or socio-ecosystem, and conceptual approaches such as the 'Stream and its Valley', the Flood Pulse concept, Environmental/ecological flows or the River Culture Concept have not yet been considered in the objectives of restoration.

Enforcement of existing laws, protection of riparian forests and headwater swamps, maintenance of environmental flows, public decision to keep parts of the river continuum entirely free of dams, and the principle of espace de liberté can solve large parts of the rural problem.
“Very often, enforcement of existing laws (e.g., the Brazilian Forest Code, [54]), protection of riparian forests and headwater swamps [177], maintenance of environmental flows [87], and the public decision to keep parts of the river continuum entirely free of dams (e.g., [10]), and the principle of “espace de liberté” (space for river dynamics), can solve a large parts of the rural problem.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
