Last autumn, the Stillaguamish Tribe moved two miles of river levee, allowing tides to spread onto 230 acres of recovered tidal marsh for the first time in more than a century. Tidal marshes are critical habitat for juvenile Chinook salmon. #riverrestoration

A 50-year-old FEMA rule was meant to prevent floods.
Instead, it’s stopping projects that could reduce flood damage and clean up polluted rivers.
Now, Congress is considering a fix.

JobAd for an Intern in river restoration ecology/plant biology, 80-100% (f/m/d): As part of a project on the connectivity of riparian plant species and their ability to establish under various flow regimes, we are looking for support in doing field work for seed collection, with greenhouse experiments where we grow selected seeds and with laboratory experiments using a flume to simulate plant resistance under various discharge conditions. The focus of your work will be the preparation and supervision of the greenhouse and laboratory experiments, including filling of pots and a flume with gravel and sand, as well as planting of seeds and juvenile plants. You will acquire knowledge on dispersal and establishment of riparian plants, the impact of river flow regimes on riparian plant establishment suitable for restoration projects, and gain insights into an interdisciplinary and applied research project on ecology and hydraulic engineering. You hold a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in (plant) biology, environmental sciences, or a related field. You are interested in plants, you like to work in the greenhouse and to conduct laboratory experiments. You are comfortable with field work in gravel-bed rivers, can lift 2L pots with gravel and sand, and are physically fit for these tasks. You work reliably and conscientiously and are interested in interdisciplinary work (ecology and hydraulic engineering with a focus on river restoration). You have a drivers license (Cat B, valid for Switzerland,), speak fluent English, and you like to work in a team. Suitable candidates holding a Bachelor's degree could also connect the internship with a master thesis on the topic of plant resistance to discharge fluctuations (e.g. seasonal floods or hydropeaking).

🎉 Look who’s moving in! We spotted a juvenile lamprey in a newly restored stretch of the Upper River Ehen. After 1km of river restoration this summer, it’s brilliant to see how quickly wildlife responds when nature gets a helping hand. 🌊

New York’s Hudson Valley is literally tearing down walls for nature. 🧱➡️🌊
Old dams are being removed, and within just a few years, fish, mussels, beavers, and birds are thriving.
Proof that sometimes less is more.

A water vole is perched on green vegetation by the water, nibbling on a blade of grass. The top-left corner features the text "Reviving river habitat for water voles" on a light green background.
We’re restoring 2km of river to help bring back water voles💧
The project aims to restore natural processes, improve bankside vegetation and enhance wetland areas - giving water voles a connected habitat to thrive.

🌧️💪 Rain? Just part of the job!
We might be soaked, but spirits are high! Today’s fieldwork took us riverside - boots in mud, raindrops drumming on hoods, and the river flowing strong beside us.
Nature doesn’t stop when it rains - and neither do we.

Amazing shots of the work on the River Don at Luib Bridge, Aberdeenshire. We straightened the approach to the bridge and used large wood training log structures to discourage future channel migration.
