Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 94 p. Abstract This report summarizes current knowledge on the status and ecology of the Mexican spot- ted owl within the Upper Gila Mountains Recovery Unit (UGM RU). It was written at the request of U.S. Forest Service personnel involved in the Four Forests Restoration Initia- tive (4FRI), a collaborative, landscape-scale restoration effort covering approximately 2.4 million ac (1 million ha) across all or part of four National Forests (Apache-Sitgreaves, Coconino, Kaibab, and Tonto National Forests) located within the UGM RU. The UGM RU supports >50% of the known population of Mexican spotted owls, and the central location of the UGM RU within the overall range of the owl appears to facilitate gene flow throughout that range. Consequently, the UGM population is viewed as important to stability within the overall range of the owl, and management that impacts owls within the UGM RU could affect owl populations beyond that RU.

  • Historical Geomorphology of the Verde River
    Historical Geomorphology of the Verde River by Philip A. Pearthree Arizona Geological Survey Open-File Report 96-13 June, 1996 Arizona Geological Survey 416 W. Congress, Suite #100, Tucson, Arizona 85701 Research conducted in cooperation with CH2MHILL as part of the basic data collection for assessment of river navigability in Arizona at the time of Statehood (1912 J. Funding was provided by the Arizona State Land Department This report is preliminary and has not been edited or reviewed for conformity with Arizona Geological Survey standards Introduction The Verde River drainage is a major river system that heads in Big Chino Valley in north­ central Arizona, flows generally southeast through the rugged terrain of central Arizona, and empties into the Salt River east of the Phoenix metropolitan area. It is unusual in Arizona because much the main channel of the Verde River is perennial for much its length. Data summarized in this report were gathered to aid in the assessment of the navigability of the Verde River in February, 1912, when Arizona became a State. These investigations were conducted in cooperation with CH2MHill and were funded by the Arizona State Land Department. The purposes of this report are to (1) outline the geologic and geomorphic framework of the Verde River, (2) to describe the physical character of the channel of the Verde River, and (3) to evaluate how channel morphology and position have changed in the past century. Physiography, Geology, and General Geomorphology of the River The Verde River heads in and flows through the rugged highlands and valleys of central Arizona (Figure 1).

  • The Ultimate Journey Itinerary
    The Ultimate Journey Itinerary visitutah.com /plan-your-trip/recommended-itineraries/mighty5/ultimate-journey A 10-day expedition from Salt Lake City through Arches, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef, Bryce Canyon and Zion national parks. 10 days in Southern Utah? Good choice. Take off your coat and stay awhile! You'll appreciate giving yourself a little extra time to experience each park more intimately and to be able to linger at incredible stops along the way. Explore the itinerary below or download the PDF now. Day 1: Salt Lake City to Arches National Park Distance: 231 miles/3.5 to 4 hours Adventure in Arches National Park picks up where 300 million years of patient erosion has resulted in unbelievably dramatic landscapes that look more sculpted by giant mythological beings than the processes of time. Arches National Park contains about 2,000 windowed arches, towering spires, harrowing hoodoos, and precarious pinnacles on display, including Delicate Arch, perhaps Utah's most iconic feature, which is a must-hike destination in the park. A paved 40-mile scenic drive from the park entrance provides numerous parking areas for trail access and scenic overlooks. Guided Tour: Reserve a tour through the Fiery Furnace. This twisting labyrinth of brilliant red rock fissures and spines is so intricate it is highly recommended to find your way through with a guide. Hikes: The 1.5-mile hike to Delicate Arch is beautiful, with the end reward of viewing Utah's famous landmark, a famed standing any bucket list. Or hike some of the easy short trails in the park, such as the Park Avenue Trail and trails in the Windows Section of the park, or some of the longer trails in the park, such as Double O Arch, Tower Arch, and Landscape Arch.

  • Analyzing Rivers with Google Earth
    Name____________________________________Per.______ Analyzing Rivers with Google Earth River systems exist all over the planet. You are going to examine several rivers and landforms created by rivers during this activity using Google Earth. While your iPad can view each location, you will need a laptop to use the ruler function. A B Figure 1: Meandering river terms. Image from: http://www.sierrapotomac.org/W_Needham/MeanderingRivers.htm Part I: Meandering Rivers: Figure 1 shows several terms used to describe meandering rivers. We are going to focus on wavelength, amplitude, and sinuosity. Sinuosity is the ratio of river length (distance traveled if you floated down the river) divided by straight length line (bird’s flight distance, i.e. from point A to B). The greater the number, the more tortuous (strongly meandering) the path the river takes. 1. Fly to Yakeshi, China. Just north of the city is a beautiful series of scroll bars (former point bars that have been abandoned) formed by the meandering river moving across the landscape. 1a. Describe the features you see. What “age” river is this (young, mature, old)? How are the meanders moving over time? Is the river becoming straighter or more curved? 1b. Find an area where the current river channel and clear meanders are easy to see (i.e. 49o18’30”N, 120o35’45”E). Measure the wavelength, amplitude and sinuosity of the river in this area. To measure straight line paths for wavelength, amplitude, and bird’s flight distance, go to Tools Ruler Line. Use kilometers. Click and drag your cursor across the area of interest.

  • Abstract Cenozoic Tectonism Can Be Seen in a Variety of Different Ways In
    Abstract Cenozoic tectonism can be seen in a variety of different ways in the Coastal Plain of North Carolina. Using high resolution Light Detecting and Ranging digital elevation models (LiDAR), the geology of the coast can be analyzed to look for evidence supporting recent tectonism and disequilibrium. The rivers in the Coastal Plain, as well as other features, provide much evidence to support this theory. Looking at the complicated geomorphology of the rivers, particularly the Cape Fear River, gives insight to potential fault locations along the rivers. Most of the streams exhibit stream capture, another sign of disequilibrium, and the amount of stream capture was quantified on the Cape Fear River. There is a southwest migration trend in the major rivers of the Coastal Plain. While the Cape Fear Arch can explain this trend in the Cape Fear River, it does not explain the southwest migration in other rivers in the north as well. Knickpoints were found in all of the rivers in the Coastal Plain. While most of them can be associated with sea level fall or changes in underlying lithologies, there are many that are caused by tectonics. Wave-cut escarpments were once deposited horizontally in various places due to rises and falls in sea level. Elevation profiles along these scarps show a higher elevation in the north than in the south, which could be explained by uplift. This uplift would also account for the southwest migration trend in the rivers. Introduction As every geologist knows, everything on Earth is constantly changing. Mountains are being formed as well as destroyed, plates are moving, new crust is being formed as old crust is subducted and recycled, and rivers are moving.
