Check Dam Construction for Sustainable Watershed Management and Planning provides basic knowledge on check dam design and watershed planning, the use of advanced modelling techniques and decision-making support tools, and discusses challenges in dam construction and how to overcome them. Sections I and II focus on the experiences gained from the erosion hotspots in the Chinese Loess Plateau, whereas Section III expands the scope to other regions with different functions for check dams, including headwater ecosystems and alpine environments. Volume highlights include: - Advantages and limitations of ecological engineering efforts during long-term watershed restoration - Case studies from Austria, China, France, Iran and Japan | | Eier: | NVE | | |
