The Scheldt Estuary: An Example of Sustainable Estuarine Management deals with all different aspects of one estuary, including the biophysical aspects of the system, but also of the socio-economic aspects. Next it provides a description of how the management of the system developed over time and gives a blueprint of the approach to be followed for integrated and holistic management. It concludes with a look to the future, for this estuary and others. The book provides a detailed case study and decision trees to aid the reader in carrying out the same techniques in their own field work and restoration efforts. Sustainable Estuarine Management describes the Scheldt estuary, its history, its uses and its problems through process-based integrated restoration and management of the estuary. The concepts and ideas described can be an inspiration for managing other estuaries and coasts.
