The development of the Eddleston Water project, the Scottish Government’s empirical study of the impact of implementing natural flood management measures on flood risk and habitat restoration, provides the opportunity to review restoration monitoring at a strategic and operational level for this long-running catchment restoration programme. The project has implemented an extensive range of restoration measures along the river and across the 69 km2 catchment. This paper reviews the monitoring strategy and assesses both how the monitoring network developed meets its strategic aims and what subsequent changes were made in monitoring design and implementation. Covering hydrology, hydromorphology and ecology, we explore how all three are integrated to provide a comprehensive assessment of restoration su...

The presence of such a chapter in this volume hardly requires justification—the importance of hydrological conditions for a family of fish is, of course, self evident. However, the precise ways in which salmonids respond to hydrological conditions are far from fully understood. Previous chapters (Beechie et al. 2008; DeVries 2008; Miller et al. 2008; Sear et al. 2008; all this volume) have considered catchment-scale controls on river channel geomorphic and sedimentary conditions, both across space and through time. The current chapter therefore concentrates on how these geomorphic conditions interact with hydrological regimes to influence the movement of fish to their spawning areas, spawning site selection, and the survival of eggs and alevins.
