Irrigated Wetlands Of The Colorado Plateau: Information Synthesis And Habitat Evaluation Method

Creator:: Adamus, Paul R.
Abstract:: Wetlands of the Colorado Plateau that receive water from irrigation can, by their functions, support several societal values. For example, their capacity for removing nitrate and perhaps pesticides from nonpoint source runoff might be considerable. However, relatively little research has been conducted in irrigated wetlands, and their ability to alter...

Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve Natural Resource Condition Assessment

Creator:: Adamus, Paul R.
Abstract:: We compiled existing data and information to characterize the condition and trends in high priority natural resources in Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve (EBLA, or "the Reserve"). We identified 29 indicators to evaluate seven major resource concerns. For each indicator we attempted to define reference conditions to which we could...
