Skrócony opis:

Get students acquainted with modern watershed management, the basis of fluvial geomorphology as well as river training practices within the river channel. All in line with WFD (Water Framework Directive) of EU

During the course students are acquainted with modern watershed management: the theory and practice. A student studies the practices of watershed management from different parts of the world. Also, what is most important, students are acquainted with a basis of fluvial geomorphology of mountain streams and lowland rivers. Such knowledge is necessary to carry on the hydrogeomorphological assessment of stream and rivers. Finally students are acquainted with some modern techniques in river engineering in river channel management. All those aspects are going to help to understand the watershed and manage it.
