<span style="font-size: 14pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Inundation is a term river ecologists use to describe the ecological creation of riverine floodplains which are highly productive habitats that often act as nurseries for fish but are threatened by regularities
in flow management. Simply, inundation refers to the areas outside of a river's banks getting wet and acting as a garden and resting place for hungry salmon looking for bugs to eat. When these areas are touched by high waters a few things happen; leaves,
sticks logs, rocks and sediments are moved helping the river to form habitat features such as log jams, side channels and slow waters. Inundation also allows for benthic macroinvertebrates to be relocated by being dislodged from rolling rocks, catching the
drift and landing in slower waters. The habitat features created by inundation give migrating fish areas to rest in safer, slower waters and places to feed as they make their epic journey to the ocean. The process of inundation occurs during winter rainstorms
as well as during the spring snow melt where waters are made available to areas outside of its banks.</span></p>
