River typology in Germany

General description

"The German stream typology was first developed following a “top down” approach, based on general, primarily geomorphologic landscapes in Germany and subsequently delimited in more detail, down to different size classes within stream types. Following this a “bottom up” validation of the types based on similarity analyses of large data sets from reference sites, with as little anthropogenic impairment as possible. The expertise from the federal states gained over the last few years in dealing with stream types went into developing the system and describing the stream types. Since this process is not ultimately finished, the typology and the “profiles” should be considered “living documents”, subject to further iteration, which, with the increasing experience in dealing with the stream types will be updated."
