Tyler Simonds’s Reviews > Nature's Fortune: How Business and Society Thrive By Investing in Nature > Status Update

“...keep in mind that seasonal floods provide a host of benefits. Where floods benefit people, longer-lasting floods are better--more time for fish to feed on the floodplain and spawn, for sediment to renew the soils, for water to recharge aquifers, among other things. Reopening stretches of historic floodplain will return the usual rhythm of these rivers and provide benefits to people who live downstream.”
