In this article, the authors describe the biological diversity of running waters and its state of imperilment, and we identify six major factors that threaten the destruction of these species and ecosystems. Finally, although few steps are being taken to protect river ecosystems, their potential for recovery is considerable, and we close with a discussion of measures to enhance the health of flowing waters.
