The project began in 1994 with the grant “Management Program for Riparian Areas to Protect Water Quality” from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Wetlands Program. The project had three levels of activity: a technical staff, an advisory committee, and a technical review group. The technical staff, composed of faculty, students, and staff from Oklahoma State University and a professional from the Natural Resources Con- servation Service, was responsible for day-to-day research and report preparation. Input from commodity and interest groups was solicited through the advisory com- mittee. The technical review group consisted of professionals from state and federal environ- mental agencies, including the Oklahoma Biological Survey, Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality, Oklahoma Water Resources Board, Oklahoma Depart- ment of Wildlife Conservation, Oklahoma Department of Agriculture - Forestry Services, Office of the Secretary of Environment, the USDA Natural Resources Con- servation Service, and the U.S. Forest Service. The technical review group helped prepare materials and reviewed documents for technical content. Project Goals Project goals and objectives were to: • Establish technical guidelines for riparian protection and management measures; • Develop a working partnership of federal and state agencies, landowners, producer groups, and environmental groups; • Provide a basis for public education and understanding of the role of riparian areas in protecting water quality; and • Recommend policy options for state riparian programs. Purpose of This Handbook This handbook provides a resource of riparian-related information to the general public and technical staffs in counties and conservation districts.

  • Plants for Riparian Buffers
    Website: Aberdeen Plant Materials Center http://plant-materials.nrcs.usda.gov Plants for Riparian Buffers P.O. Box 296, Aberdeen, ID 83210 Phone:(208) 397-4133 Fax:(208) 397-3104 What is a Riparian Buffer? Many farmers, ranchers and land managers have a growing concern over water quality issues. Riparian buffers are one of the most important practices that you can use to help control non- point pollution and improve water quality. Riparian buffers are the grasses, grass-like, forbs, shrubs, trees or other vegetation growing along streams. These plants control erosion and help filter and keep water clean. Cropland fields shouldn’t be planted right up to a stream’s edge where the soil is generally more fragile and subject to erosion. A healthy riparian buffer between cropland and a river system Shrubs, trees and other vegetation protect the stream from pollutants and runoff. They absorb excess nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus from farm and livestock operations. Plants protect the stream banks from erosion by providing a protective barrier against the water. The trunks, branches, stems and leaves intercept the water currents that can weaken and wash away bank material. In addition to protecting water and soil, riparian buffers provide important habitat for aquatic and upland wildlife and also fish habitat. The information contained in this brochure will help you select the best shrubs and trees for installing riparian buffers on your farm or ranch. The plants listed are all highly recommended for use in the Intermountain West and Rocky Mountain States. Included are tips for planning riparian buffers and areas, Aberdeen Plant Materials Center Service area.

  • Hood Canal Riparian Landscapes: Early Historical Condition and Ecological Changes
    Hood Canal riparian landscapes: early historical condition and ecological changes Ted Labbe, Port Gamble S'Klallam Tribe Ashley Adams, Independent Consultant Bob Conrad, Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe Natural Resources Department 31912 Little Boston Road NE Kingston, WA 98346 June 12, 2006 Executive Summary Though limited in spatial extent, riparian forests are among the most dynamic and diverse environments in the Pacific Northwest. At the interface between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, riparian environments host an array of critical plant and animal species, enrich the region’s aesthetic landscape, and support an array of crucial ecological services like nutrient processing/transformation, water quality protection, and flood hazard reduction. Our knowledge of riparian forest ecology has expanded rapidly over the last 30 years. However, there is little information on historical changes to riparian forests and this knowledge gap hinders effective ecosystem management. In this study, we combined archival land survey records and contemporary field surveys to reconstruct historical riparian forest conditions and chart ecosystem change in Hood Canal, Washington. Historical General Land Office (GLO) surveys (c. 1870) for Hood Canal and adjacent areas were integrated with a 1910 timber cruise survey for the 60 km2 Dewatto watershed in a GIS. Field surveys at 80 riparian sites were used to validate our approach and to chart historical vegetation composition change. Comparisons among historical land surveys and with a contemporary vegetation inventory revealed potential bias in historical survey records. To account for these biases we limited our analyses and capitalized on the complementary nature of the historical surveys, using the GLO records for forest composition and the 1910 timber cruise for forest age and spatial structure.

  • Riparian Systems
    Riparian Systems January 2007 Fish and Wildlife Habitat Management Leaflet Number 45 Introduction Riparian areas are transitional zones between terres- trial and aquatic systems exhibiting characteristics of both systems. They perform vital ecological functions linking terrestrial and aquatic systems within water- sheds. These functions include protecting aquatic eco- systems by removing sediments from surface runoff, decreasing flooding, maintaining appropriate water conditions for aquatic life, and providing organic ma- terial vital for productivity and structure of aquatic ecosystems. They also provide excellent wildlife hab- itat, offering not only a water source, but food and shelter, as well. NRCS Soils in riparian areas differ from soils in upland areas because they are formed from sediments with differ- ent textures and subjected to fluctuating water levels and degrees of wetness. These sediments are rich in nutrients and organic matter which allow the soils to retain large amounts of moisture, affecting the growth and diversity of the plant communities. Riparian areas typically are vegetated with lush growths of grasses, forbs, shrubs, and trees that are tolerant of periodic flooding. In some regions (Great Plains), however, trees may not be part of the his- toric riparian community. Areas with saline soils or U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service heavy, nearly-anaerobic soils (wet meadow environ- ments and high elevations) also are dominated by her- baceous vegetation. In intermittent waterways, the ri- parian area may be confined to the stream channel. Threats to riparian areas have come from many sourc- es. Riparian forests and bottomlands are fertile and valued farmland and rangeland, as well as prime wa- ter-front property desired by developers.

  • The Value of Riparian Habitat to Buffer Effects of Climate Change in California’S Central Valley
    THE VALUE OF RIPARIAN HABITAT TO BUFFER EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE IN CALIFORNIA’S CENTRAL VALLEY Abbygayle Britton Dr. Foran | ENVS 190 Senior Thesis April 17, 2019 THE VALUE OF RIPARIAN HABITATS 1 Abstract The ecosystem services provided by riparian habitats are a potential alternative to mitigate the impacts of climate change on the Central Valley of California (CVC). The rise in regional temperature increasingly alters the hydrological regime which degrades aquatic ecosystems, contributes to water scarcity, and imposes stress on the flora and fauna throughout the CVC. Though riparian habitats historically characterized much of the CVC, its current potential in onset of climate change is not as widely acknowledged. A literature review supports the capacity for riparian habitats to provide biological refugia through thermal cover, enhanced habitat quality and role as a corridor for migration. Further research determined that riparian habitats can likely influence aquifer recharge and effectively store water resources. As the effects of climate change become more severe, it will be essential to incorporate the role of riparian habitats.

  • Riparian Forest Buffers: an Agroforestry Practice
    49Riparian Forest Buffer #1 AGROFORESTRY NOTES Riparian Forest Buffers: An Agroforestry Practice Kate MacFarland / Assistant Agroforester / USDA National Agroforestry Center Richard Straight / Lead Agroforester / USDA National Agroforestry Center Mike Dosskey, PhD / Research Ecologist / USDA National Agroforestry Center Published February 2017 Introduction ocated along streams, lakes, or wetlands, riparian forest buffers deliver water quality, habitat, recreation, and other benefits in agricultural, woodland, range, suburban, L and urban settings. A wide variety of state and federal programs support the installation of riparian forest buffers on public and private lands. Riparian forest buffers can be used in landscape-scale green infrastructure plans to serve a variety of functions, particularly along the rural-urban interface. Green infrastructure is an approach to conservation that involves creating a network of green areas to benefit people and wildlife. Definition A riparian forest buffer is an area adjacent to a stream, lake, or wetland that contains a combination of trees, shrubs, and/or other perennial plants and is managed differently from the surrounding landscape, primarily to provide conservation benefits. Objectives Riparian forest buffers can help meet a number of natural resource, economic, and social objectives, including: • Filtering nutrients, pesticides, and animal waste from agricultural land runoff • Stabilizing eroding banks • Filtering sediment from runoff • Providing shade, shelter, and food for fish and other aquatic organisms • Providing wildlife habitat and corridors for terrestrial organisms • Protecting cropland and downstream communities from flood damage • Producing income from farmland that is frequently flooded or has poor yields • Diversifying landowner income • Creating recreational spaces 1 A number of factors can impact the effectiveness of riparian forest buffers in meeting these objectives.
