Managing River Flows for Biodiversity:
Balancing Human Demands and
Ecosystem Needs
This video provides information about the water flows needed to
sustain the ecological health of river systems, water management
strategies that can accommodate human needs while maintaining adequate
flows in a river, and some technical tools that help achieve this
balance. The video features case studies of the Apalachicola River
in Florida and the San Pedro River in Arizona. It also includes
interviews with lawyers, water managers, and freshwater ecologists.
Hydrologists and aquatic biologists should find the video useful
for educating resource specialists, managers, and the general public
about the importance of instream flow issues.
