摘要
Flow is considered to be the master variable for a river because the fluvial processes and health of its ecosystem critically depend upon flow. Increasing water withdrawals from many rivers of the world are leading to severe degradation in river ecosystems. Water is allocated for environmental needs so that a river can perform its natural functions. This article discusses the concept of environmental flow, methods to assess it, and issues in implementation. Copyright (C) 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
