The river ecosystem is a complex mosaic of interaction and interrelationship of the biotic and abiotic (hydrological, geomorphic etc.) The ecological function of a river is linked to the hydrological variations in the river flow. Hence flow is the most important and significant variable of a river system/ecosystem. Besides sustaining the ecosystem, and performing its geomorphic functions (erosion, sediment transport, reworking etc.), the river flow under appropriate condition recharges groundwater and rejuvenation in its flood plain. During floods the river adds nutrients to the soil. A River is the ultimate sink for surface runoff in its basin.
