Description of the Study Area
Description of the study Area Description: Description of the Study Area: The Big Piney Watershed is located in central Missouri and covers approximately 755 square miles in four counties. These counties include Texas, Howell, Phelps, and Pulaski Counties (see Big Piney- map.pdf). Most of the watershed (74%) lies within Texas County, while Pulaski, Phelps, and Howell Counties contain 14%, 12%, and less than 1% of the watershed respectively. The Big Piney Watershed is bounded on the west, north and a portion of the east side by the remainder of the Gasconade Basin. The Meramec, Current, and Jacks Fork Watersheds bound the Big Piney on the remainder of the East side, while the North Fork watershed lies on its southern boundary. The Big Piney Watershed has 5 cities and towns within or partially within its boundary. They include Cabool, Houston, Licking, Raymondville, and St. Robert. The Big Piney's land cover use is described in the Big Piney Land cover use.pdf. The majority of the Big Piney is fores, with grassland being a distant second as far as land use/cover type. The Big Piney River begins as a first order stream approximately 4 miles northwest of Cabool, Missouri. From its beginnings, the stream flows in a southeasterly direction for approximately 4 miles before entering the city of Cabool, Missouri. It then continues in a southeasterly direction for 2 miles before turning northeast and following the outskirts of Cabool for an additional 2 miles. From Cabool, the river continues in a northeasterly direction for 35 miles before turning to the North, Northeast. -
