Book Synopsis Impact of Spring-associated Riparian Vegetation on Channel Morphology by : Paul Johnson Southard

This book was released on 2019 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Riparian vegetation is a key control on alluvial channel morphology, but a more quantitative understanding of its morphological impacts must be developed in order to predict channel change in the face of riparian succession and prescribe vegetation as a river management tool. Recent studies have focused on vegetation's role as a bank-strengthening agent that hinders braiding, increases depth and decreases width in perennial streams. However, the tendency of vegetation to grow on the channel bed, in addition to the banks, in ephemeral streams suggests that it may have entirely different morphological impacts. I examined dryland channels draining the Henry Mountains in southern Utah that are intersected by perennial bedrock springs along their length. Spatial variability in water availability from the spring produces high spatial variability in vegetation. As a result, these channels provide a unique opportunity to study how channel morphology responds to changes in vegetation, and to identify the morphological impact of riparian vegetation in channels that accommodate ephemeral streams. I used 1m-resolution Digital Elevation Models and AnuGA flow modeling software to simulate five discharge scenarios for two roughness conditions in three of these channels, and produced high-resolution datasets of channel geometry and spatial vegetation density. I tested the hypotheses that 1) riparian vegetation has a quantifiable impact on channel morphology in ephemeral streams and 2) the morphological impact of riparian vegetation in channels with channel bed vegetation is different from that in channels with channel bank vegetation. I quantitatively showed that, for these ephemeral streams, channel morphology is dependent on vegetation characteristics. In channels with channel bed vegetation, vegetation causes widening and decreases flow velocity. In channels with only channel bank vegetation, vegetation causes narrowing and deepening. By performing comparisons of sparsely- and densely-vegetated reaches within individual channels, I provided the following quantitative constraints on the relative magnitude of riparian vegetation's impact on channel geometry: Reaches with dense channel bank vegetation are approximately 25% narrower and 25% deeper than sparsely-vegetated reaches. Channel bank vegetation causes narrowing by 12-16% and deepening by 7-11% per 0.1 increase in calculated LiDAR Vegetation Index from the unvegetated cross-section channel geometry. Reaches with dense channel bed vegetation are approximately 20-100% wider and 5-30% slower than sparsely-vegetated reaches. Channel bed vegetation causes widening by 13-29% and slowing by 2-7% per 0.1 increase in calculated LiDAR Vegetation Index from the unvegetated cross-section channel geometry.
Book Synopsis Texas Riparian Areas by : Nicole A. Davis
Download or read book Texas Riparian Areas written by Nicole A. Davis and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2014-01-29 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Riparian areas—transitional zones between the aquatic environments of streams, rivers, and lakes and the terrestrial environments on and alongside their banks—are special places. They provide almost two hundred thousand miles of connections through which the waters of Texas flow. Keeping the water flowing, in as natural a way as possible, is key to the careful and wise management of the state’s water resources. Texas Riparian Areas evolved from a report commissioned by the Texas Water Development Board as Texas faced the reality of over-allocated water resources and long-term if not permanent drought conditions. Its purpose was to summarize the characteristics of riparian areas and to develop a common vocabulary for discussing, studying, and managing them.

Book Synopsis Urban Stormwater Management in the United States by : National Research Council
Download or read book Urban Stormwater Management in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-03-17 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid conversion of land to urban and suburban areas has profoundly altered how water flows during and following storm events, putting higher volumes of water and more pollutants into the nation's rivers, lakes, and estuaries. These changes have degraded water quality and habitat in virtually every urban stream system. The Clean Water Act regulatory framework for addressing sewage and industrial wastes is not well suited to the more difficult problem of stormwater discharges. This book calls for an entirely new permitting structure that would put authority and accountability for stormwater discharges at the municipal level. A number of additional actions, such as conserving natural areas, reducing hard surface cover (e.g., roads and parking lots), and retrofitting urban areas with features that hold and treat stormwater, are recommended.

Book Synopsis Geoecology of the Marias River Canyon, Montana, USA by : James G. Schmitt
Download or read book Geoecology of the Marias River Canyon, Montana, USA written by James G. Schmitt and published by Geological Society of America. This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Marias River canyon in north-central Montana served during late Holocene time as a locus of human activity in an ecologically and geologically dynamic landscape. This volume presents the results of interdisciplinary research, synergistically combining geologic, ecologic, and archaeologic approaches focused on examining the ways that Late Precontact peoples depended upon the animal (bison) and plant resources of a changing landscape subject to erosion and sediment transport as dominant surficial processes. Connections between erosion and deposition, plant community distribution, large mammal niches, and native peoples' place in the Marias River canyon geoecosystem, as well as the role of tributary-junction alluvial fans as repositories of archaeological materials and vertebrate faunal remains are emphasized.
