This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument; Ecological Monitoring Program; Monitoring Protocol Manual, Vol. 11: Special Report, September 1995 Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument (orpi), established in 1937, is located in southwestern Arizona and is geographically near the center of the Sonoran Desert. The monument encompasses a. Ha), of which 95% is designated wilderness. On 26 October 1976, the United Nations Education, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (unesco) recognized and designated orpi as a Biosphere Reserve. Although the monument includes only a small portion of the vast Sonoran Desert, it preserves many elements of that ecosystem. Its boundaries encompass not only mountain ranges, but also rich habitats of baj ada, valley floor, riparian systems and expanses of arid creosote plains. Although originally conceived as a monument to preserve a unique species of columnar cactus, orpi now stands as one of the most diverse protected areas of the Sonoran Desert ecosystem in the United States or Mexico. Like other natural preserves, orpi is vulnerable to rapidly changing land uses beyond its boundaries. Of Special concern is the southern boundary, which borders the neighboring state of Sonora, Mexico. In the late 1960s, the Mexican government encouraged and subsidized agricultural development in the Sonoyta Valley, where previously only subsistence farming had been practiced. Approximately 165 wells were serving a. Ha) by 1988. Although a moratorium on the construction of new wells is now in effect, groundwater depletion in the Sonoyta Valley aquifer is a constant threat, as current capacity for water withdrawal exceeds current rates by one-half. Other concerns to orpi have included the effect of herbicide and pesticide drift on native plants and animals, increased vehicle traffic, and the invasion of nonnative flora and fauna. With the recent passage of the North American Free Trade Agreement, increased urbanization, agricultural development, and manufacturing have become new threats to orpi desert ecosystems.

Download or read book Southwestern Desert Resources written by William L. Halvorson and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2023-01-17 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The southwestern deserts stretch from southeastern California to west Texas and then south to central Mexico. The landscape of this region is known as basin and range topography featuring to “sky islands” of forest rising from the desert lowlands which creates a uniquely diverse ecology. The region is further complicated by an international border, where governments have caused difficulties for many animal populations. This book puts a spotlight on individual research projects which are specific examples of work being done in the area and when they are all brought together, to shed a general light of understanding the biological and cultural resources of this vast region so that those same resources can be managed as effectively and efficiently as possible. The intent is to show that collaborative efforts among federal, state agency, university, and private sector researchers working with land managers, provides better science and better management than when scientists and land managers work independently.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document presents the results of surface-water-quality data retrievals for Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument (ORPI) from six of the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) national databases: (1) Storage and Retrieval (STORET) water quality database management system; (2) River Reach File (RF3); (3) Industrial Facilities Discharge (IFD); (4) Drinking Water Supplies (DRINKS); (5) Water Gages (GAGES); and (6) Water Impoundments (DAMS). The primary goal of the project is to provide descriptive water quality information in a manner and format that is both consistent with the goals of the Servicewide Inventory and Monitoring Program and useable by park resource managers. The document provides: (1) a complete inventory of all retrieved water quality parameter data, water quality stations, and the entities responsible for the data collection; (2) descriptive statistics and appropriate graphical plots of water quality data characterizing period of record, annual, and seasonal central tendencies and trends; (3) a comparison of the park's water quality data to relevant EPA and WRD water quality screening criteria; and (4) an Inventory Data Evaluation and Analysis (IDEA) to determine what Servicewide Inventory and Monitoring Program "Level I" water quality parameters have been measured within the study area.
