                                                                                                                                     (a) pathways for the dispersal and movement of organic and inorganic sediment, delivery to downstream reaches and to the ocean, and to and from the floodplain; or
                                                                                                                                     (b) the dilution of carbon and nutrients from the floodplain to the river systems.
Criterion 3: The ecosystem function provides connections along a watercourse (longitudinal connections)
