Introduction
The goal of the ‘Danube Restoration Project’ is to gradually restore hydrological connectivity and
ecological integrity between the river and its floodplain in a segment of the Austrian Danube [1] [2]. In order to test the effectiveness and success of this large-scale pilot
project, a long-term evaluation program has been implemented, which includes abiotic, biotic and
functional components [3] Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag
