River landscapes and processes

Question 1

Examine the advantages and disadvantages of the soft engineering flood management strategies (afforestation and wetland restoration) shown in Figure 2. Figure 2: A map of the River Aller catchment, Somerset, showing flood mitigation strategies. The upper catchment on steep slopes has designated zones for 'Afforestation / Catchment Woodland'. The middle catchment contains a wide, flat floodplain designated for 'Wetland Restoration & Seasonal Water Storage Meadows'. Downstream of these zones is the small settlement of Allerford.
