Since 2021, our interdisciplinary group has been working to raise awareness of BDAs and to implement successful projects in Switzerland. France has also been implementing BDA projects since 2023. <strong>BDAs<\/strong> are low, natural-looking wooden structures that span streams and redirect water toward the banks, like the dams built by beavers. Over time, the sections of stream influenced by these structures gradually change back into near-natural watercourses. The altered flow dynamics upstream and downstream from the BDAs create more diverse, structurally rich habitats that benefit an array of water-dependent plant and animal species.<\/p>\n<p>BDAs can be planned and implemented quickly. Their use is uncontroversial and doesn't depend on the spread of beavers. They are the key to the extensive restoration of aquatic habitats and the future resilience of our watercourses to climate change.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text x-text-headline has-graphic e217-e60 m61-1k m61-1l m61-1m\"><div class=\"x-text-content\"><span class=\"x-graphic\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"x-icon x-graphic-child x-graphic-icon x-graphic-primary\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-x-icon-s=\"&#xf1c1;\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"x-text-content-text\"><h3 class=\"x-text-content-text-primary\">Documents<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><a class=\"x-anchor x-anchor-button has-graphic e217-e61 m61-1r m61-1s m61-1t m61-1u m61-1v m61-3\" tabindex=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beaverdamanalogs.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2A_PDF_Werdenberg-et-al_2025_BDA_Flussfakten.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" data-x-effect=\"{&quot;durationBase&quot;:&quot;300ms&quot;}\"><div class=\"x-anchor-content\"><span class=\"x-graphic\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"x-icon x-graphic-child x-graphic-icon x-graphic-primary\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-x-icon-o=\"&#xf105;\"><\/i><i class=\"x-icon x-graphic-child x-graphic-icon x-graphic-secondary\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-x-icon-s=\"&#xf101;\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"x-anchor-text\"><span class=\"x-anchor-text-primary\">Werdenberg et al.

straightforward process:<\/p>\n\n<ol type=\"A\">\n \t<li>Establish one or several clear objectives, such as increasing the sponge effect, climate change resilience or biodiversity.<\/li>\n \t<li>Identify a suitable section of the watercourse.<\/li>\n \t<li>Obtain detailed information for the planning of the project, including the necessary construction measures and planning permission, which are usually low-threshold.<\/li>\n \t<li>Implement the project in several phases over several years<\/li>\n \t<li>Give the stream time to develop naturally, monitor its progress, and, if necessary, redirect and adapt its movement through routine watercourse maintenance.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Revitalisation using BDAs sets in motion a wide range of valuable ecological processes that can be actively supported, e.g. through routine watercourse maintenance. Unlike traditional construction measures, which result in a static solution, the BDA method is based on a dynamic process. It encourages natural change in the section of the watercourse being revitalised, allowing nature-like processes to unfold over time and taking the stream through successive stages of ecological development. One aspect of this change is that major flood events may reshape or even destroy individual wooden structures \u2013 just as real beaver dams are periodically altered or washed away by natural hydrological movements. In keeping with the idea of replicating beaver activity, these structures may be adjusted, rebuilt or extended when required. In this way, BDAs support the 'natural' revitalisation of the stream in stages.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text x-text-headline has-graphic e217-e94 m61-1k m61-1l m61-1m\"><div

How can we safeguard existing use of water resources and stream outlets?<br \/>\nWhich groups of species could benefit most from minor adjustments?<br \/>\nWho needs to grant permission for what?<br \/>\nAre there any incentives linked to the flood prevention effects of delayed runoff? How can agricultural businesses benefit from such measures?<br \/>\nWhat financing options are available?<\/p>\n<p>Since every watercourse is unique, questions like these need to be answered on a case-by-case basis. BDA projects demand broad expertise. Our interdisciplinary working group draws on its extensive experience to plan, build and support bespoke BDA projects.<\/p>\n<p>We support initiators, landowners and hydraulic engineering authorities from the initial concept to the implementation and monitoring of BDA sections.<\/p>\n<p>We are pleased to offer expert advice on all technical aspects of your project. Our areas of expertise include civil engineering, ecology, agriculture, agroecology, forestry, water resource management and environmental education.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text x-text-headline

Switzerland, conducted as part of the Schlossbach project in the canton of Bern, showed positive effects on fish, amphibians and aquatic plants within two years of implementation.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, six BDAs were installed along the Schlossbach to divert stream water from the incised channel to the bank area, increasing the flooded habitat by 600%.<\/p>\n<p>Even with the reduced flow and widening of the stream, the water temperature remained stable over the course of the day. After two years, continuous sediment accumulation was observed above the BDAs, raising what was formerly an incised stream bed to a shallower, more natural level.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text
