It synthesizes decades of research on floodplain ecosystems, explaining hydrologic, geomorphic and ecological processes and how these processes can provide a range of benefits to society under appropriate management. Due to the widespread alteration of temperate floodplains, these benefits are often not realized. Drawing on the framework of reconciliation ecology, the authors explore how new concepts for floodplain ecosystem restoration and management can provide a broader range of benefits to society, ranging from healthy fish populations to flood-risk reduction. Case studies from California's Central Valley and elsewhere in temperate regions show how innovative management approaches are reshaping rivers and floodplains around the world."--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Floodplains. 650 0 $a Floodplains $z Central Valley. $z Central Valley. 650 0 $a Floodplain ecology. 650 0 $a Floodplain management. 650 0 $a Ecosystem management. 651 0 $a Earth (Planet) $x Processing. $x Processing. 700 1 $a Moyle, Peter B., $e author. 700 1 $a Larsen, Eric W., $e author. 700 1 $a Florsheim, Joan L., $e author. 700 1 $a Manfree, Amber D., $e author. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Opperman, Jeffrey J., 1971- author. $t Floodplains $d Oakland, California : University of California Press, [2017] $z 9780520966321 $w (DLC) 2017012223 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190103015035.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=510A61C0C38A11E7B100357297128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
