Outline (in English)

(Course outline)
River systems consist of various events such as discharge fluctuations during floods and droughts, sediment and mass transport through catchments and channels, changes in river morphology, ecological dynamics and services of fauna and flora etc. This course is designed to study these complex mechanisms involved in river systems and correctly understand how they should be regulated to allow harmony between ecosystems and human activities. In addition to lectures on fundamentals of ecodynamics, world-wide examples of river restoration projects are presented in order to help students learn desirable ways of creating sustainable river systems that are friendly to the ecosystem.
（Learning Objectives）
To correctly understand the impact of social activities and natural ecosystems on the river environment, and to study river systems to prevent and mitigate flood damage and realize appropriate and efficient cyclical use of water resources. Through this, students will understand the ideal river basin system based on the river system, and will acquire the basic knowledge necessary to promote river restoration that make use of the nature, climate and local culture.
（Learning activities outside of classroom）
Review the handouts and the results of the exercises. While considering the relationship between the content learned and river prototypes, students understand the applicability and usefulness of river environmental engineering.
The standard time for preparation and review for this class is 2 hours each (total 2 hours).
（Grading Criteria /Policy）
Percentage of grade evaluation: Comprehensive evaluation based on report/mini test (30%) and final exam (70%). A score of 60 or higher on a scale of 100 is considered a pass.
