Description

This report discusses ecological benefits that can be achieved through alteration of riverine geomorphology using passive approaches. The future of the Lisbon Bottom sidechannel chute and its physical and biological characteristics are not predictable with confidence. The fluvial processes that create physical habitat can require long time intervals, and the ultimate characteristics of the chute may not be apparent for decades. Continued monitoring and evaluation of the evolution of the Lisbon Bottom chute will be necessary to assess longterm ecological benefits of passive rehabilitation in this setting.
