Abstract: The Vindel River is one of the few freeflowing its entire catchment are part of the Natura 2000 network. The river was exploited for timber floating between 1850–1976; rapids in the main channel and tributaries below the alpine tree line were channelized to increase timber transport capacity. Side channels were cut off and the flow was concentrated to a single channel from which boulders and large wood were removed. Hence, previously heterogeneous environments were replaced by more homogeneous systems with limited habitat for riverine species. The Vindel River LIFE project (LIFE08 NAT/S/000266) works with the restoration of 25 tributaries in the Vindel River system. The project strives to alleviate the effects of fragmentation and...
