Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Flow Regimes and Canyon Bottom Vegetation Dynamics at Walnut Canyon National Monument, Arizona The Water Rights Branch of the Water Resources Division, National Park Service, contracted with the Cooperative Park Studies Unit1 to determine the historical flow regimes and canyon bottom vegetation dynamics at Walnut Canyon National Monument (w aca), Arizona. The prehistoric and historic flow regimes for Walnut Canyon as well as their effect upon the associated vegetation are not well documented or understood. Since the turn of the century, hydrologic conditions have changed due to construction of dams and other water diversions. Concomitantly, changes in riparian and aquatic habitat and composition have been cm-going Brian This study endeavors to understand this complex hydrologic-vegetative system through field research, resurvey of past studies, and synthesis.

Download or read book The Ribbon of Green written by Robert H. Webb and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Woody wetlands constitute a relatively small but extremely important part of the landscape in the southwestern United States. These riparian habitats support more than one-third of the regionÕs vascular plant species, are home to a variety of wildlife, and provide essential havens for dozens of migratory animals. Because of their limited size and disproportionately high biological value, the goal of protecting wetland environments frequently takes priority over nearly all other habitat types. In The Ribbon of Green, hydrologists Robert H. Webb, and Stanley A. Leake and botanist Raymond M. Turner examine the factors that affect the stability of woody riparian vegetation, one of the largest components of riparian areas. Such factors include the diversion of surface water, flood control, and the excessive use of groundwater. Combining repeat photography with historical context and information on species composition, they document more than 140 years of change. Contrary to the common assumption of widespread losses of this type of ecosystem, the authors show that vegetation has increased on many river reaches as a result of flood control, favorable climatic conditions, and large winter floods that encourage ecosystem disturbance, germination, and the establishment of species in newly generated openings. Bringing well-documented and accessible insights to the ecological study of wetlands, this book will influence our perception of change in riparian ecosystems and how riparian restoration is practiced in the Southwest, and it will serve as an important reference in courses on plant ecology, riparian ecology, and ecosystem management.
