Book excerpt: Concern over the potential impacts of logging on sockeye salmon in the Stuart-Takla watershed of British Columbia has led to initiation of a multi-agency project to study the effects of forest practices on fish production and aquatic environments. As the effects of logging and road construction on sediment input to streams are strongly affected by the erodibility and stability of local surficial materials, a terrain (surficial geology) map is an essential part of the database for such a project. This report reviews the bedrock geology, topography, and evolution of the landscape under glaciation of the Stuart-Takla watershed, and describes the terrain mapping methodology used in the project. It then defines and describes the types of surficial materials found in the watershed, including till and other glacier-derived material, the geomorphological processes affecting the landscape, and sediment sources encountered. The report concludes with consideration and recommendations for forest surface management.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents data collected as part of studies focusing on the effects of forest practices on British Columbia interior fish stocks and habitat. Water temperature and weather data were obtained in the Takla Lake/Middle River drainage basin, representing the most northern extent of the Fraser River watershed. Meteorological data (maximum, minimum and average air temperature, maximum and average radiation, total precipitation) were collected from April to October each year from 1991 to 1996. Water temperature data (maximum, minimum, mean) were collected for various time periods 1990-96 at Kynoch, Forfar, Gluskie, Bivouac, and Leo creeks.

Book excerpt: Researchers, habitat managers, native representatives, and forestry workers attended the Takla workshop to consider the preliminary findings from two years of research activities from four Stuart/Takla tributaries in British Columbia. These proceedings include 15 papers on forest-stream interactions, invertebrate production, forestry issues, water quality, channel morphology, sedimentation, fish incubation habitats, streambed characteristics, insect populations, and salmon spawner and fry enumeration. The proceedings provide insight into many of the physical and biological processes that occur in central interior watersheds.
Download or read book Stream Restoration in Dynamic Fluvial Systems written by Andrew Simon and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-05-08 with total page 939 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series, Volume 194. Stream Restoration in Dynamic Fluvial Systems: Scientific Approaches, Analyses, and Tools brings together leading contributors in stream restoration science to provide comprehensive consideration of process-based approaches, tools, and applications of techniques useful for the implementation of sustainable restoration strategies. Stream restoration is a catchall term for modifications to streams and adjacent riparian zones undertaken to improve geomorphic and/or ecologic function, structure, and integrity of river corridors, and it has become a multibillion dollar industry. A vigorous debate currently exists in research and professional communities regarding the approaches, applications, and tools most effective in designing, implementing, and assessing stream restoration strategies given a multitude of goals, objectives, stakeholders, and boundary conditions. More importantly, stream restoration as a research-oriented academic discipline is, at present, lagging stream restoration as a rapidly evolving, practitioner-centric endeavor. The volume addresses these main areas: concepts in stream restoration, river mechanics and the use of hydraulic structures, modeling in restoration design, ecology, ecologic indices, and habitat, geomorphic approaches to stream and watershed management, and sediment considerations in stream restoration. Stream Restoration in Dynamic Fluvial Systems will appeal to scholars, professionals, and government agency and institute researchers involved in examining river flow processes, river channel changes and improvements, watershed processes, and landscape systematics.

Download or read book The Integration Imperative written by Michael P. Gillingham and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this work is to develop a better understanding and thinking about the cumulative impacts of multiple natural resource development projects. Cumulative impacts are now one of the most pressing, but complex challenges facing governments, industry, communities, and conservation and natural resource professionals. There has been technical and policy research exploring how cumulative environmental impacts can be assessed and managed. These studies, however, have failed to consider the necessary integration of community, environment and health. Informed by knowledge and experience in northern British Columbia, this book seeks to expand our understanding of the cumulative impacts of natural resource development through an integrated lens. The book offers a timely response to a growing imperative – proposing integrative response to multiple natural resource developments in a way that addresses converging environment, community and health issues. Informed by the editors’ experiences across several complementary areas of expertise, we envision this book as appealing to a wide range of researchers, educators and practitioners, with relevance to a growing audience with appetite for and interest in integrative approaches.

This book was released on 2004-12-28 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While new developments in genomics, nanotechnology, sampling, and modelling permit increasingly revealing investigation into flocculation structure and processes, there is still a fundamental lack of knowledge related to many aspects of this phenomenon. Presented by a prominent team of international experts, this text takes a unique perspective and melds together the natural and engineering fields of science as they relate to this central phenomenon. In doing so, the authors present the full range of sampling, handling, analytical, and interpretive options for operational management of natural or engineered system, providing comprehensive coverage that meets the needs of researchers, practitioners and students.
