DOI: 10.1007/s13280-020-01363-3
Abstract: River restoration is a novel paradigm of ‘mirescape’ (land-and-water-scape) management that developed along with the emergence of aquatic ecology. River restoration can be seen as the application of an ecological perspective to return rivers to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoser.2020.101206
Abstract: Abstract Rivers provide ecosystem services (ES) that benefit people, but worldwide, many rivers are severely degraded thus compromising service supply. River restoration aims at reversing this condition. We reviewed the scientific literature to synthesise published… read more here.
