River Restoration to Achieve a Stage 0 Condition: Summary of a Workshop Held November 5-6, 2020

Creator:: Behan, Jeff, Fetcho, K., Davis, R., and Gaines, L.
Abstract:: Restoration to achieve Stage 0 is a valley-scale, process-based (hydrologic, geologic and biological) approach that aims to reestablish stream depositional environments to maximize longitudinal, lateral, and vertical connectivity at base flows and facilitate development of dynamic, self-formed and self-sustaining wetland-stream complexes. The term Stage 0 originally described complex multi-channel conditions...

Restoration of Annual Grass-invaded Landscapes in the Sagebrush Steppe using Perennial Grass Seed Technologies and Wyoming Big Sagebrush Transplanting

Creator:: Holfus, Corinna M.
Abstract:: Within the sagebrush steppe ecosystem, invasive annual grasses are of growing management concern as they outcompete native vegetation, change the fundamental nutrient cycling processes, decrease biodiversity, and increase frequency of wildfires. The most widely used and effective management tool to decrease invasive annual grass abundance, is the use of pre-emergent...

Experiencing Restoration-Focused Forestry

Creator:: Dwyer, Michael
Abstract:: The practice of modern silviculture on U.S. public lands has been stymied by a legacy of litigation and policy changes since the late 20th century. Forestry in the 1980s was focused on physical science strategies and failed to consider the social complexities of multi-use forest management. Emblematic of the challenges...

A Comparative Analysis of Literature Search Results for Chinook Restoration Project Evaluation Between 2012 and 2022 Western Pacific Studies in California, Oregon, and Washington

Creator:: Clark, Erica Jennifer
Abstract:: Pacific salmon are an integral part of ecosystems, industry, culture, and food source. Rapid declines and extirpation in many populations and species have caught the interest of environmentalists, scientists, recreational anglers, commercial fishers, general public, and economists. Billions of dollars have been spent to restore, return, improve, sustain dwindling populations...

Pollinator-Focused Solar: Observations of Plant-Pollinator Interactions in the Agrivoltaic Understory

Creator:: Graham, Maggie
Abstract:: Habitat for pollinating insects is declining, which is a concern for agricultural communities that rely on pollination services. Meanwhile, solar energy development is increasing as communities seek to source energy renewably. Land under solar panels is traditionally unused, so some communities are planting pollinator habitat under solar panel canopies to...

Beaver Herbivory Behavior and its Impact on Habitat Restoration at South Slough National Estuarine Research Reserve

Creator:: Marten, Sarah
Abstract:: North American beavers (Castor canadensis) are ecological engineers that improve biodiversity and can improve the health of riparian ecosystems. Beavers are generalist herbivores with some evidence of species preference, utilizing woody material for both food source and dam construction. In the South Slough National Estuarine Research Reserve, Charleston, Oregon, a...

Grassland Restoration and Climate Change: Altar Valley, Arizona Case Study

Creator:: Gondor, Anne
Abstract:: The Altar Valley is an important working landscape that supports biodiversity and vulnerable species in Pima County, Arizona (Huckelberry 2000). This semi-desert grassland, alluvial valley and 713,807-acre watershed composed of 39 subbasins serves as an aquifer to a portion of southwestern Tucson. This region of Southern Arizona has been identified...

Central Park's Woodlands: Forest Community Changes After a Decade of Management

Creator:: Hodges, Alexander R.
Abstract:: The woodlands of New York City's Central Park have seen varying levels of management and neglect since the creation of the park over 150 years ago. The Central Park Conservancy has aimed to restore, enhance, and elevate the stewardship of the park, including its woodlands and other Natural Areas, since...

Early post-restoration recovery of tidal wetland structure and function at the Southern Flow Corridor project, Tillamook Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Janousek, Christopher, Bailey, Scott, van de Wetering, Stan, Brophy, Laura, Bridgham, Scott, Schultz, Matthew, and Tice-Lewis, Maxwell
Abstract:: A substantial fraction of estuarine tidal wetlands have been lost to development or other human uses in the Pacific Northwest since the 1800s. Wetland restoration, typically through tidal re-connection, can restore normal tidal hydrology to these areas and improve estuarine capacity to support ecosystem functions and services. Restoration may initiate...

Mycorrhizal Fungi on the Sagebrush Steppe: Benefits for Restoring Keystone Rangeland Plant Species

Creator:: Prado-Tarango, David E.
Abstract:: Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are plant symbionts that associate with the vast majority of terrestrial plants species. The AMF colonizes the plant roots by penetrating the root cortical cells, where the fungi exchanges mineral nutrients with the host plant for photosynthates. This association exists as a complex system in which...
