Ecological Landscape: Stream Section - Deep Pools, Shallow Riffles, and Stone Banks

A renaturalized urban stream section. The waterway meanders, with deep pools on the outside of bends where the water surface is smooth and dark green, and gravel bars and sandbanks accumulating on the inside; straight sections are shallow rapids with broken, whitish water. The bank on the outside of the bends is dry-stacked natural block stone, with ferns and grasses growing in the crevices; the remaining bank sections are gentle slopes with a 1:5 ratio, covered with sedges and Ludwigia, showing mud marks from the last water level. Pathways are set back ten meters from both banks. Low-angle light in the evening. Avoid: using concrete three-sided channels, making both banks symmetrical, placing pathways right next to the water, using neatly stacked gabion revetments.

一段再自然化的都市溪流。水道蜿蜒,彎道外側是深潭、水面平滑深綠,內側堆積出一片礫石灘與沙洲;直段是淺瀨,水面破碎泛白。彎道外側的岸是乾砌的天然塊石,石縫裡長出蕨類與草;其餘岸段是坡比一比五的緩坡,長滿莎草與水丁香,可以看到上次水位的泥痕。兩岸退後十米才是步道。傍晚的低角度光。避免:使用混凝土三面光渠道、讓兩岸左右對稱、把步道貼著水邊做、使用整齊砌築的石籠護岸。
