Title
Sustainable Riverscape Management in Tropical Catchments - From Evidence to Practice
Abstract
Project NATIVE studies how two tropical rivers, the Camarones-Tomarrazón (Colombia) and the Yaque del Norte (Dominican Republic), can be managed for biodiversity, livelihoods and climate resilience. The talk combines field monitoring of channel morphology and sediment dynamics with 2D hydraulic modelling of flood extent and duration under climate-change scenarios, and shows how these results were used to match agroforestry crops to floodplain inundation regimes and to define sustainable volumes and protocols for in-channel sand extraction.
