Download or read book Riparian Areas written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-10-10 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clean Water Act (CWA) requires that wetlands be protected from degradation because of their important ecological functions including maintenance of high water quality and provision of fish and wildlife habitat. However, this protection generally does not encompass riparian areasâ€"the lands bordering rivers and lakesâ€"even though they often provide the same functions as wetlands. Growing recognition of the similarities in wetland and riparian area functioning and the differences in their legal protection led the NRC in 1999 to undertake a study of riparian areas, which has culminated in Riparian Areas: Functioning and Strategies for Management. The report is intended to heighten awareness of riparian areas commensurate with their ecological and societal values. The primary conclusion is that, because riparian areas perform a disproportionate number of biological and physical functions on a unit area basis, restoration of riparian functions along America's waterbodies should be a national goal.

Book excerpt: America's rivers are the heart of rich and vital riparian ecosystems, home to unique communities of plants and animals. Aesthetically pleasing as well as a crucial food source for wildlife, these habitats are slowly being destroyed in our eagerness to harness natural resources. Biological diversity -- the key to ecological stability -- is threatened by a range of developmental projects, including efforts to dam and channel waterflow, to convert flood-prone land to agriculture, to harvest timber, and to undertake oil and gas exploration. Down by the River explores these problems and their impact on an ecosystem that is often ignored or neglected.

Download or read book A Source Manual of Raptors Occurring on Corps of Engineers Lands in the Pacific Northwest Region written by Tracy L. Flemming and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report serves as a source manual of raptors occurring on Army Corps of Engineers lands in the Pacific Northwest. It consists primarily of a comprehensive literature review covering aspects of the biology of 35 species of eagles, hawks, falcons, vultures, and owls. The manual was developed to provide biologists and resource managers with background information to facilitate the application of sound raptor management practices on project lands. While the literature is cosmopolitan, references are applicable to species found in, but not limited to, the Pacific Northwest. Approximately 4,000 citations, compiled through 1983, are included. General guidelines on raptor management and survey techniques are provided. An outline of techniques is given for habitat assessment, development, and management applicable to Federal lands, and recommendations are provided for management needs regarding various land use practices and recreational activities. Basic procedures for conducting raptor nesting surveys, migration counts, and winter surveys are outlined. Raptor studies conducted on project lands in the US Army Engineer Division, North Pacific, are summarized.

Book excerpt: Return to the River will describe a new ecosystem-based approach to the restoration of salmon and steelhead populations in the Columbia River, once one of the most productive river basins for anadromous salmonids on the west coast of North America. The approach of this work has broad applicability to all recovery efforts throughout the northern hemisphere and general applicability to fisheries and aquatic restoration efforts throughout the world. The Pacific Northwest is now embroiled in a major public policy debate over the management and restoration of Pacific salmon. The outcome of the debate has the potential to affect major segments of the region's economy - river transportation, hydroelectric production, irrigated agriculture, urban growth, commercial and sport fisheries, etc. This debate, centered as it is on the salmon in all the rivers, has created a huge demand for information. The book will be a powerful addition to that debate. - A 15 year collaboration by a diverse group of scientists working on the management and recovery of salmon, steelhead trout, and wildlife populations in the Pacific Northwest - Includes over 200 figures, with four-color throughout the book - Discusses complex issues such as habitat degradation, juvenile survival through the hydrosystem, the role of artificial production, and harvest reform
