Abstract
A lot of river restoration projects are carried out, especially with the improving strategy of integrated water manangement. However a good scientific evaluation is often lacking. This project will focus on the evaluation of a number of diverse projects carried out by the province of Antwerp. The evaluation will be done based on a number of ecological parameters, such as macrophytes, macro-invertebrates and fish. The results of the evaluation will be used as educational material on restoration projects for water managers.
