520 |a"Nature-based solutions (NbS), and their ability to manage flood and erosion risks, are receiving increasing attention internationally but have been less widely implemented in Canada. There are a number of knowledge gaps and research needs that are preventing broader uptake of NbS in Canadian river systems, including a need for practical guidance to support design and implementation of NbS. The Ocean, Coastal and River Engineering Research Centre of the National Research Council of Canada (NRC-OCRE) is leading a multi-year project that aims to address key technical knowledge gaps that currently prevent broader uptake and implementation of NbS for riverine flood and erosion risk management in Canada. This report provides foundational information pertaining to river flooding and erosion risk in Canadian river systems as a step towards guidance for design and implementation of riverine NbS"--Executive summary, page iii.
