Hello,
I am a PhD student and I want to work on the effect of vegetation patch on river flow. I have written the proposal, but my supervisor believes that I should provide a practical justification for this study.
Most of the studies have tried to cover the research and scientific gaps and I have written the same reasons.
What do you think the vegetation in the middle of the river can be used for?
If you have any advice or article you can introduce, I will be very grateful.
Hello and have a good time. There is a topic called bioremediation, which shows the effect of plants in the purification and regulation of wetland and river systems. This topic is very interesting and up-to-date and you can advance your research in this direction. In any case, if you need more explanation in this regard, I can help you.
The practical applications will become apparent after the study too. I think it's okay to have theoretical approach. And the aims may change as the study progresses anyway :)

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts on this.
Yes, I write the same reasons, but the meaning of the practical reason is, for example:
For example, by placing vegetation in the middle of a pond or river, you can help control floods, or treat sewage, etc.
Let's say we investigated the flow field around the vegetation patch, so?

Yes, it is exactly like that. But for now I have no choice but to give a good reason.!
The practical justification is how disturbance affects ecosystem functioning, and how to preserve biodiversity :)
