The inherentsocio-technicalcomplexity ofriverresearch,varieties ofresearch disci -plines,methods and end-users poses challenges foreffective communication [1].•
Effectiveness is notonly aboutusage monitoring [2]butalso relies on the evaluation ofthe effectiveness in terms ofcontent,process and intended outcome [3].•
Differentexperiences and interests in rivermanagementinfluence opinions ofthe va-rieties ofend-users aboutthe meaning,applicability and consequences forsustainability [4]ofthe implemented riverinterventions.•
Researchers should presentresults,underlying assumptions and methodological choices [5]in a clear,simple and recognizable contextto the intended audience [6].•
Presented information should be usefuland relevantwhile encouraging reflection, common understanding and learning aboutthe problem complexity[5].References:
