Summary
Ecological flooding has been introduced in a polder area next to the Rhine, near Altenheim in Germany. This measure improved the ecological functionality of the area, and created at the same time valuable space for recreation. Issues of forest management, a rising groundwater level and an increased mosquito population had to be dealt with.
