500 _ai Part A: The emerging process of river repair 1 Chapter 1 Moves towards an era of river repair Gary Brierley and Kirstie Fryirs 4 The emerging process of river repair The emergence of integrative river science Framing what we are trying to achieve in the process of river repair Structure of the book Chapter 2 Vision Generation: What do we seek to achieve in river rehabilitation? Darren Ryder, Gary Brierley, Richard Hobbs, Garreth Kyle and Michelle Leishman 23 Use of a guiding image to set rehabilitation goals Scientific considerations in vision generation Assessing rehabilitation success Socio-economic considerations: An inclusive approach to vision generation Incorporating a guiding image in into successful river rehabilitation practice Conclusion Chapter 3 Turbulence and train wrecks: Using knowledge strategies to enhance application of integrative river science to effective river management Andrew Boulton, Hervé Piégay and Mark Sanders 47 Sources of turbulence Reducing turbulence with shared beliefs: tenets and commitments Seeking ¿solvable problems¿: comparative analysis of knowledge structures Four logical steps to evaluate knowledge structures Strategies for constructing solvable problems: difficulties and potential solutions Prognosis and conclusions Part B: An integrative scientific perspective with which to guide the process of river repair 66 Chapter 4 The spatial organization of river systems Carola Cullum, Gary Brierley and Martin Thoms 69 Perspectives on the spatial organization of river systems An integrated perspective: analyzing river systems as spatially nested hierarchies Challenges in determining scales and patch boundaries Biotic implications of the spatial arrangement of geomorphic process domains Management implications Conclusion Chapter 5 Working with change: The importance of evolutionary perspectives in framing the trajectory of river adjustment Gary Brierley, Kirstie Fryirs, Andrew Boulton and Carola Cullum 106 Understanding contemporary river dynamics in their evolutionary context Scales and forms of geomorphic adjustment Linkages between abiotic and biotic adjustments along rivers Conceptualizing river evolution and recovery as a basis for management planning and action Examples of river trajectories Place-based conceptual modeling Conclusions and implications Chapter 6 Ecological function in rivers: insights from crossdisciplinary science Sarah Mika, Andrew Boulton, Darren Ryder and Daniel Keating 138 Interactions between structure and function Interactions between structure and function in space and time Connectivity within riverine ecosystems Examples of crossdisciplinary research on ecological function Synthesis and conclusion Chapter 7 Principles of River Condition Assessment Kirstie Fryirs, Angela Arthington and James Grove 170 Purposes of river condition assessments Ecosystem integrity as a basis for assessing biophysical river condition Integrating abiotic and biotic factors in assessments of river condition What is natural or expected? Defining reference conditions Identifying indicators that provide a reliable and relevant measure of the biophysical condition of rivers Considerations in the design/application of integrative frameworks for assessing biophysical condition Integrating tools for assessing river condition Conclusion Chapter 8 Social and biophysical connectivity of river systems Mick Hillman, Gary Brierley and Kirstie Fryirs 203 Connectivity and River Health Forms, patterns and changes to physical (dis)connectivity Social (dis)connectivity Contrasting sub-catchments from the Hunter Valley, New South Wales Interbasin Transfers: The Snowy Hydro Scheme (Dis)connectivity: themes for integrative river management Synthesis: Sustainability, health, justice and policy in addressing (dis)connectivity Conclusion Part C: International perspectives on the process of river repair 243 Chapter 9 The Australian River Management Experience Kirstie Fryirs, Bruce Chessman, Mick Hillman, David Outhet, and Alexandra Spink 246 Setting the scene: The Australian landscape and historical setting Biophysical themes in Australian river management practice: What is achievable? The organizational context of Australian river management practice: The capacity to do something Social themes in Australian river management practice: Community will to do something Integration and future challenges Conclusion Chapter 10 River Management in the United States Ellen Wohl, Margaret Palmer and G. Mathias Kondolf 283 How healthy are rivers in the United States? Policy and legal framework Contemporary pressures and constraints on water resources Likely future influences on river management Strategies for river protection and rehabilitation Examples of river rehabilitation What does the future hold for rivers in the United States? Chapter 11 Integrative River Science and Rehabilitation: Some European Experiences Herve Piégay, Larissa Naylor, Gertrud Haidvogl, Jochem Kail, Laurent Schmitt and Laurent Bourdin 332 Emergence of integrative river science in European Countries Integrative sciences in pioneer rehabilitation programs Challenges approaching implementation of the European WFD Conclusion Chapter 12 Light and dark of Sabo-dammed streams in steepland settings in Japan Tomomi Marutani, Shun-ichi Kikuchi, Seiji Yanai and Kaori Kochi 365 Why have we developed the Sabo dam country? Japanese experiences with discontinuity of geoecological interactions along river courses Management of dammed streams for environmental care Conclusion Chapter 13 Application of Integrative Science in the Management of South African Rivers Kate M. Rowntree and Leanne du Preez 399 South African water legislation, Agenda 21 and South African river management The reserve as an example of South African management frameworks Future fluvial geomorphologies Integrative science and the future of South African river management Conclusion Part D: Managing the process of river repair 433 Chapter 14 Restoring Uncertainty: Translating science into management practice Mick Hillman and Gary Brierley 435 Sources of uncertainty in the management of river systems The assessment of condition in river management: characteristics and uncertainty Uncertainty and Sustainability Living with uncertainty in the era of river repair Conclusion Chapter 15 River Futures Gary Brierley, Kirstie Fryirs and Mick Hillman 465 The emerging process of river repair The use of coherent scientific information to guide the process of river repair Managing the process of river repair Conclusion
