von Keitz, Stephan and R. Andreas Kraemer 2006: "Verbesserung der Gewässerstrukturen und des Hochwasserschutzes", in: Peter Rumm; Stephan von Keitz and Michael Schmalholz (eds.): Handbuch der EU-Wasserrahmenrichtlinie. Berlin: Erich Schmidt Verlag, 301-319.

This chapter in the Handbook for the EU-Water Framework Directive addresses the causes of hydromorphological shortcomings and the consequences of hydraulic engineering interventions on the ecological status of water bodies. The authors, Stephan von Keitz and R. Andreas Kraemer, analyse the possibilities to bring navigational interests, the use of hydropower, and flood control measures in line with the goals of the Water Framework Directive.

The 2nd, fully updated edition of the Handbook for the EU-Water Framework Directive has been published in 2006. It comprises 9 chapters from 37 authors – five of them members of the Ecologic Team.

The Handbook can be purchased for €86, from the publishing house Erich Schmidt Verlag.
