Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In prehistoric times, the Santa Cruz River in what is now southern Arizona saw many ebbs, flows, and floods. It flowed on the surface, meandered across the floodplain, and occasionally carved deep channels or arroyos into valley fill. Groundwater was never far from the surface, in places outcropping to feed marshlands or ciénegas. In these wet places, arroyos would heal quickly as the river channel revegetated, the thriving vegetation trapped sediment, and the channel refilled. As readers of Requiem for the Santa Cruz learn, these aridland geomorphic processes also took place in the valley as Tucson grew from mud-walled village to modern metropolis, with one exception: historical water development and channel changes proceeded hand in glove, each taking turns reacting to the other, eventually lowering the water table and killing a unique habitat that can no longer recover or be restored. Authored by an esteemed group of scientists, Requiem for the Santa Cruz thoroughly documents this river—the premier example of historic arroyo cutting during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, when large floodflows cut down through unconsolidated valley fill to form deep channels in the major valleys of the American Southwest. Each chapter provides a unique opportunity to chronicle the arroyo legacy, evaluate its causes, and consider its aftermath. Using more than a collective century of observations and collections, the authors reconstruct the circumstances of the river’s entrenchment and the groundwater mining that ultimately killed the marshlands, a veritable mesquite forest, and a birdwatcher's paradise. Today, communities everywhere face this conundrum: do we manage ephemeral rivers through urban areas for flood control, or do we attempt to restore them to some previous state of perennial naturalness? Requiem for the Santa Cruz carefully explores the legacies of channel change, groundwater depletion, flood control, and nascent attempts at river restoration to give a long-term perspective on management of rivers in arid lands. Tied together by authors who have committed their life’s work to the study of aridland rivers, this book offers a touching and scientifically grounded requiem for the Santa Cruz and every southwestern river.

This book was released on 2017-06-17 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Distributional List of the Birds of Arizona The beginning of this list of the birds of Arizona dates back about eleven years, to a time when the author was engaged in field work in that state. A hasty compilation was made of a few local lists, and the manuscript carried in the field as a guide and aid in making observations and collections. This beginning proved an incentive to the gathering of further data, and shortly after, the opportunity presenting itself for visiting more extensive libraries than had hitherto been available, a careful and systematic search was made through the literature deal ing with the ornithology of Arizona. The resulting information was filed away and added to as chance offered, but more pressing work and other interests inter fered to prevent the whole from being put into shape for publication. Further more it soon became evident that while a fairly long list of species could be com piled as occurring within the state. The published information concerning a large proportion of them was scanty and fragmentary. The writer had hoped to be in a position to continue field work in certain little known sections of the state, where undoubtedly there is much to be added to our knowledge of the birds, but this contingency became more and more improbable, and under the circumstances it seemed advisable to publish the list as it now stands. It is hoped that as far as it goes this list will be found to be fairly accurate. Pertinent literature has been gone' over with care, and it is doubtful if any im portant publication has been overlooked. At the same time it can hardly be doubted but that there are in collections specimens whose existence will modify many of the statements made here, and it is also highly probable that there are active collectors who have many unpublished records in their notes which would also occasion changes. Available collections and collectors' notes, however, have been made use of wherever possible. The aim of the present publication is to give a list of the species of birds oc curring in Arizona, with a synonymy of the names applied, as regards their oc currence within the state, and a brief but comprehensive outline of the manner of occurrence. The latter, it is hoped, is in each case as clear and accurate as the present state of our knowledge permits. An effort has been made to give a gen eral statement outlining the range and manner of occurrence, supplemented by the citation of authorities for extreme or unusual instances. Exact dates have been given only for the rarest species, those of which but a few specimens have been recorded. The synonymy consists of those names by which the species has been known in literature pertaining to Arizona ornithology.
