Overview

Erosion is a natural process in all river systems. This one-day course will provide an introduction into: the types and drivers of river bed and bank erosion; the techniques for monitoring erosion, and approaches to manage and control erosion in different settings. The course is open to all with an interest in rivers and river restoration, and will not require significant prior knowledge of these topics.

We have developed this course to hold as a hybrid learning course, with material uploaded to an online learning platform for delegates to work through in their own time over a 4-week period. Following this, we will hold a 1.5 hour discussion session online for all attendees on the course to join and discuss the material.
