5.0 out of 5 stars Indespensible resource for anyone working with streams!!!, February 2, 1999
By 
dsquyres@cdsnet.net (the Rogue Valley, Oregon) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Applied River Morphology (Hardcover)
If everyone out there involved in streams, fisheries, land management, bridge construction, stream restoration projects, etc. was familiar with the principles in this book, there would be a lot more true restoration success stories and a lot less catastrophic failures and property damage in flood events. As a hydrologist for a major government agency, I have had ample opportunity to see that these principles really work in the field, and have seen the endless line of failures that occur when they are ignored. Highly recommend!!! An absolute must if you want those projects to work!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Simplified steps for the classification of stream channels, August 6, 2001

This review is from: Applied River Morphology (Hardcover)
I am not really sure what was so boring for our British friend. Maybe he knows everything about streams already. However, this book is concise in it's description of stream morphology and identification of the basic stream types located in North America. I use the book on a continual basis and it's information is consistent and scientifically valid.

4.0 out of 5 stars Informative and Enjoyable, April 26, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Applied River Morphology (Hardcover)
A perfect book for beginners learning the field of river hydrology and a good visual reference for professionals. Plenty of of great pictures and diagrams clearly explaining characteristics of different river systems. A downpoint is that it lacks discussion of some more advanced ideas on river morphology and sediment transport.
