Causes of Riverbank Erosion in Devon's Landscapes
Common causes include high water flow, poor drainage, deforestation, livestock access, and invasive species weakening the soil structure.
Human activity such as construction or poor land management also worsens riverbank stability and encourages erosion.
Identifying and addressing root causes early is key to preventing extensive environmental and financial consequences.
