Description :
This paper reviews the development of geomorphological knowledge of channel changes below dams in 3 phases : channel dynamics, the role of riparian vegetation, and channel change as the driver of ecological regime or steady-state models should be replaced by models of transient states applied to the reach scale in order to respond to the needs of river managers over decadal timescales.
