Leaky Dams as Nature-Based Solutions in Flood Management Part II: Mechanisms, Effectiveness, Environmental Impacts, Technical Challenges, and Emerging Trends by Umanda Hansamali, Randika K. Makumbura, Upaka Rathnayake, Hazi Md. Azamathulla, Nitin Muttil

“…This review delves into the mechanisms by which leaky dams operate, including the regulation of water flow through velocity reduction and distribution across floodplains, effective sediment trapping and soil quality enhancement, and the facilitation of groundwater recharge and water table stabilization. These structures not only mitigate peak flood flows and reduce erosion but also contribute to enhanced biodiversity by creating diverse aquatic habitats and maintaining ecological connectivity. …”
