  • Havasupai Nation Field Trip May 16 – 20, 2012 by Melissa Armstrong
    Havasupai Nation Field Trip May 16 – 20, 2012 By Melissa Armstrong The ESA SEEDS program had a field trip to Flagstaff, AZ the Havasupai Nation in Western Grand Canyon from May 16 – 20, 2012 as part of the Western Sustainable Communities project with funding from the David and Lucille Packard Foundation. The focus of the field trip was on water sustainability of the Colorado River Basin from a cultural and ecological perspective. The idea for this field trip arose during the Western Regional Leadership Meeting held in Flagstaff in April 2011 as a way to ground our meeting discussions in one of the most iconic places of the Colorado Plateau – the Grand Canyon. SEEDS alumnus Hertha Woody helped ESA connect with the Havasupai Nation; she worked closely with the former Havasupai tribal council during her tenure with Grand Canyon Trust as a tribal liaison. Hertha was instrumental in the planning of this experience for students. In attendance for this field trip were 17 undergraduate and graduate students, 1 alumnus, 1 Chapter advisor, and 2 ESA staff members (21 people total), representing eight Chapter campuses (Dine College Tuba City and Shiprock campuses, ASU, NAU, UNM, SIPI, NMSU, Stanford) – See Appendix A. The students were from a diverse and vibrant background; 42% were Native American, 26% White, 26% Hispanic and 5% Asian. All four of our speakers were Native American. The overall experience was profound given the esteem and generosity of the people who shared their knowledge with our group, the scale of the issues that were raised, the incredibly beautiful setting of Havasu Canyon, and the significant effort that it took to hike to Supai Village and the campgrounds – approximately 30 miles in three days at an elevation change of 1,500 feet each way.

This 22 failure may result from the contrasting results of base flow studies conducted on the amount of streamflow into the 23 Colorado River sourced from groundwater. Some studies rule out the significance of groundwater contribution, while 24 other studies show groundwater contributing the majority flow to the river. This study uses new and extant 1 25 instrumented data (not indirect methods) to quantify the base flow contribution to surface flow and highlight the 26 overlooked, substantial portion of groundwater. Ten remote sub-basins of the Colorado Plateau in southern Utah and 27 northern Arizona were examined in detail.

  • Clear-Water Tributaries of the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon, Arizona: Stream Ecology and the Potential Impacts of Managed Flow by René E
    Clear-water tributaries of the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon, Arizona: stream ecology and the potential impacts of managed flow by René E. Henery ABSTRACT Heightened attention to the sediment budget for the Colorado River systerm in Grand Canyon Arizona, and the importance of the turbid tributaries for delivering sediment has resulted in the clear-water tributaries being overlooked by scientists and managers alike. Existing research suggests that clear-water tributaries are remnant ecosystems, offering unique biotic communities and natural flow patterns. These highly productive environments provide important spawning, rearing and foraging habitat for native fishes. Additionally, clear water tributaries provide both fish and birds with refuge from high flows and turbid conditions in the Colorado River. Current flow management in the Grand Canyon including beach building managed floods and daily flow oscillations targeting the trout population and invasive vegetation has created intense disturbance in the Colorado mainstem. This unprecedented level of disturbance in the mainstem has the potential to disrupt tributary ecology and increase pressures on native fishes. Among the most likely and potentially devastating of these pressures is the colonization of tributaries by predatory non-native species. Through focused conservation and management tributaries could play an important role in the protection of the Grand Canyon’s native fishes. INTRODUCTION More than 490 ephemeral and 40 perennial tributaries join the Colorado River in the 425 km stretch between Glen Canyon Dam and Lake Mead. Of the perennial tributaries in the Grand Canyon, only a small number including the Paria River, the Little Colorado River and Kanab Creek drain large watersheds and deliver large quantities of sediment to the Colorado River mainstem (Oberlin et al.

  • Havasu Creek by Dan Wilson, Brent Campos, Rene Henery, Sabra Purdy and Dave Epstein
    Havasu Creek By Dan Wilson, Brent Campos, Rene Henery, Sabra Purdy and Dave Epstein Havasu Creek was the most majestic tributary we saw on our trip down the Grand Canyon in March of 2005. Where the turquoise water of Havasu Creek met the turbid water of the Colorado River, a distinct color break was formed as the waters struggled to mix (figure two). The creek was lined by the towering sandy colored Muav Limestone which painted the creek with dark shadows. It was in these dark shadows that we observed approximately 70 spawning flannelmouth suckers (figure 1). All of the Grand Canyon’s native fish depend on tributaries for successful spawning. Clear water tributaries, like Havasu, provide crucial spawning habitat for native fishes (Henery 2005, this volume). Flannelmouth suckers, and the largely extirpated razorback sucker have both been observed spawning in Havasu Creek, and aggregations of flannelmouth suckers have been linked with flows in Havasu Creek though not with those in the Colorado River (Douglas and Douglas 2000). While snorkeling through Havasu Creek, we observed two very large carp upstream from the spawning suckers. The presence of common carp near spawning native fishes is very disturbing. Carp are known to be a successful omnivore worldwide. Originating from Asia, carp were introduced into the Lower Colorado River system in the late 1890s. Since then, carp, along with other alien fishes, have contributed to the demise of native fishes. Much like what we observed in Havasu Creek, Hayden (1992) describes several documented events in which carp have been found near spawning native fishes.

  • Microbiome of Grand Canyon Caverns, a Dry Sulfuric Karst Cave in Arizona, Supports Diverse Extremophilic Bacterial and Archaeal Communities
    Raymond Keeler and Bradley Lusk. Microbiome of Grand Canyon Caverns, a dry sulfuric karst cave in Arizona, supports diverse extremophilic bacterial and archaeal communities. Journal of Cave and Karst Studies, v. 83, no. 1, p. 44-56. DOI:10.4311/2019MB0126 MICROBIOME OF GRAND CANYON CAVERNS, A DRY SULFURIC KARST CAVE IN ARIZONA, SUPPORTS DIVERSE EXTREMOPHILIC BACTERIAL AND ARCHAEAL COMMUNITIES Raymond Keeler1 and Bradley Lusk2,C Abstract We analyzed the microbial community of multicolored speleosol deposits found in Grand Canyon Caverns, a dry sulfuric karst cave in northwest Arizona, USA. Underground cave and karst systems harbor a great range of microbi- al diversity; however, the inhabitants of dry sulfuric karst caves, including extremophiles, remain poorly understood. Understanding the microbial communities inhabiting cave and karst systems is essential to provide information on the multidirectional feedback between biology and geology, to elucidate the role of microbial biogeochemical processes on cave formation, and potentially aid in the development of biotechnology and pharmaceuticals. Based on the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene, the microbial community was determined to consist of 2207 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) using species-level annotations, representing 55 phyla. The five most abundant Bacteria were Actinobacteria 51.3 35.4 %, Proteobacteria 12.6 9.5 %, Firmicutes 9.8 7.3 %, Bacteroidetes 8.3 5.9 %, and Cyanobacteria 7.1 7.3 %. The relative abundance of Archaea represented 1.1 0.9 % of all samples and 0.2 0.04 % of samples were unassigned. Elemental analysis found that the composition of the rock varied by sample and that calcium (6200 3494 ppm), iron (1141 ± 1066 ppm), magnesium (25 17 ppm), and phosphorous (37 33 ppm) were the most prevalent elements detected across all samples.
