Oxbow Restoration: A Guide For Landowners
Product Description
An oxbow is a former river bend cut off from the main channel that provides floodwater storage, wildlife habitat, and water quality benefits. In Iowa, many oxbows have been degraded due to man-made changes to hydrology, such as land use and drainage alterations. Restoration improves flood protection, reduces erosion, supports fish habitat, and helps remove nitrate from water.
