Urban River Landscapes

The importance of urban rivers have always been recognized [1-6] for water resources, protection of nature, fisheries and recreation in view of their considerable contributions to landscape [3, 7]. In addition, rivers have certain definite environmental, social, cultural and economic values, as well. They are used by humans on a wide variety of purposes such as drinking water, irrigation, industry, power production, transportation, flood control, fishing, boating, swimming and aesthetic enjoyment [8].
