Selecting the right outplanting sites is crucial for successful conservation translocations and reintroductions of plant species in dynamic riverscapes. Habitat suitability modelling and subsequent connectivity assessment are a promising approach.

Not river ecology, but interesting insights into the dynamics of alpine alluvial fans: our presentation at #EGU25: "Constraining centennial to sub-annual sediment dynamics on alpine alluvial fans"

Another bad example of well meant flood protection measures. The braidplains of the Kireas river in Evia, Greece were "cleaned" after several larger floods.

Plant translocations and reintroductions for conservation purposes are often unsuccessful. Sandrine Godefroid and colleagues have summed up the outcome of over 3000 plant translocations across Europe, their outcome and reason for success or failure.
