Hydromorphological Alterations

Hydromorphological alterations refer to changes made to the natural shape, flow, and physical features of rivers and streams. These changes often result from human activities like dam construction, channelization, or removing vegetation, which can disturb the natural movement of water and sediments. Such alterations can affect habitats, reduce biodiversity, and impact water quality. Maintaining or restoring natural hydromorphological conditions is important for ecosystem health, water management, and ensuring that rivers can support plants, animals, and human needs effectively.
