Lectures in River Science

These lectures were created as training for U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologists, planners and other professionals who work on issues affecting rivers. They cover a lot of information in a short time, and serve as an introduction to the more “technical” side of River Science, but without requiring any math.
