The second volume of a two part manual designed for managers involved in the rehabilitation of biological and physical conditions in Australian streams and rivers, provides more detailed information on tools that can be used in rehabilitation works. The volume is divided into three sections: common stream problems, planning tools and intervention tools. Specific areas covered include: geomorphic problems, water quality problems, other biological problems, natural channel design, evaluation tools, planning tools, intervention in the channel, and intervention in the riparian zone. Issues such as soil erosion, water supply, and flooding are addressed only in the context of rehabilitation work (A).
