Description
Monitoring data to evaluate nature friendly riverbanks more

In navigable canalized rivers new nature friendly riverbanks are constructed. Several monitoring programs are set up to asses nature values, in particular the occurance and abundance of helophyte species in these constructions. This dataset contains vegetation data (plots and line transects), breeding birds data, sedimentation and erosion data, water quality data and technical data.
