IRBAS: Intermittent River Biodiversity Analysis and Synthesis
Advancing the Science and Management of Intermittent Rivers and Streams
IRBAS gathers a research team of international, knowledgeable and productive scientists to achieve the IRBAS project objectives:
Discover and quantify biodiversity patterns and relationships in intermittent rivers.
- Compile and synthesize data on intermittent river biodiversity and habitat
- Provide policy-makers and resource managers tools for effective management and restoration of intermittent rivers
- Raise awareness about the importance of intermittent rivers with scientists, managers, and the public
- Provide an open-access data repository for all projects related to non-perennial rivers and streams
