River restoration revives wildlife but not natural functions
Original: Restoring rivers brings back wildlife, but their natural functions may not recover
New reporting on river restoration projects finds that while bringing degraded rivers back to life does return wildlife to restored waterways, the natural ecological functions of the rivers may not fully recover. The finding suggests restoration work delivers visible gains in biodiversity, but underlying processes remain altered despite the return of plants and animals.
Why now: It raises fresh questions about whether expensive river restoration projects actually succeed at more than surface level.
