  4. The Role of Vegetation inRiparian Function • Protect banks • Stabilize channels • Dissipate energy: • Slow velocity • Drop sediment • Stabilize sediment • Build floodplain

  5. Build Floodplain: • Increase water storage capacity (sponge) • Increase recharge • Absorb floodwater • Prolonged flow

  6. Riparian Vegetation • Slow the water down • Retain water on the land longer
