R. Moyle, Jr., Peter Martin, R. C. Schluter, Linda R. Woolfenden, Karen Downing, Ann L. Elliott, and Dorothy E. Maltby ABSTRACT This report provides a bibliography for the Southern California Alluvial Basins Regional Aquifer-Systems Analysis project. The bibliography includes references for about 4,000 publications related to the geohydrology of the 75,000-square-mile region, which encompasses all southern California (except the Central Valley), the Channel Islands and the Pacific Ocean floor off southern California, and parts of adjacent States and Mexico. The report indexes the publications in six geographic categories and includes a list of sources of publications. Because of the large number of references in the bibliography, a system was developed for computer storage and retrieval. References can be retrieved by geographic location, author, or geohydrologic discipline and subject. The computer system allows for updating and addition of references. INTRODUCTION The Southern California Alluvial Basins RASA (Regional Aquifer-Systems Analysis) is one of many planned or ongoing national RASA studies of the U.S. Geological Survey. The objectives of the Southern California Alluvial Basins RASA are (1) to determine the geohydrologic framework of the coastal and desert alluvial basins in southern California excluding the Central Valley and (2) to identify and analyze major issues and problems affecting the use of ground water in these basins. The study area for the Southern California Alluvial Basins RASA includes about 75,000 mi 2 and extends from Santa Clara and Mono Counties on the north to the California-Mexico boundary on the south (fig. 1). Parts of western Nevada and western Arizona are included on the east, and the Channel Islands and part of the offshore area of southern California on the west. The study area is about 400 miles long and as much as 225 miles wide. The geology and hydrology of the area are as diverse as anywhere in the world. Surface water is scarce or seasonal throughout most of the Southern California Alluvial Basins RASA study area. Because of the lack of adequate local surface-water supplies, ground water is an important and extensively used resource. A multitude of maps and reports have been produced pertaining to the geohydrology of southern California, but no comprehensive bibliography has been published. This report presents a bibliography of about 4,000 references organized by geographic location for use in the Southern California Alluvial Basins RASA. Included in this bibliography are reports of Federal, State, and local agencies; academic institutions; and private firms. The coverage of Federal and State publications is extensive; the coverage of reports by local agencies, academic institutions, and private firms is not exhaustive for all areas. Selected journal articles also are included. Publications cited in this bibliography may be borrowed or purchased at one or more of the universities, colleges, libraries, and government agencies mentioned in the "Sources of Publications" section. Because of the large number of references in the bibliography, a system was developed for computer storage and retrieval. References may be retrieved from the system according to geographic category, author, or geohydrologic discipline and subject. References may also be added and updated in the system. The geohydrologic disciplines and subjects used in the bibliography are shown in table 1. 124° 120° 40° STUDY AREA rO \ 36 100 MILES -1 ' 34' 100 KILOMETERS FIGURE 1.-Location of the study area. ORGANIZATION OF THE BIBLIOGRAPHY The bibliography presented in this report is organized into six geographical categories. The categories are ordered from most detailed to most general as follows: 1. 15-minute topographic quadrangles 2. Map sheets 3. Military reservations and national monuments 4. Counties 5. Southern California and offshore 6. Arizona, California, Mexico, and Nevada. For example, a report cited in category 1 contains highly detailed information on a specific locality, whereas a report cited in category 6 contains general information on one of the States included in the study or on Mexico. Citations within each category and subdivision are alphabetized by senior author. 15-Minute Topographic Quadrangle Maps The first category of references in the bibliography is based on the series of 15-minute topographic quadrangle maps prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey. References compiled for each quadrangle include reports and maps that pertain almost entirely to that particular quadrangle. Because they cover small areas, the reports and maps referenced in this category are usually more detailed studies than the reports and maps referenced in other categories of the bibliography. The 15-minute quadrangles have been assigned a 4-digit index number using a grid system devised for this report (pi. 1), and in the bibliography the quadrangles have been serialized according to this system. The 15-minute quadrangle map index numbers and their corresponding 15-minute quadrangle map names and associated 7^-minute quadrangle map names are shown in table 2. The four-digit identification number for each 15-minute quadrangle can be derived from plate 1 as follows. The first two digits refer to row numbers, which are on the left and right edges of the map. The rows are numbered from bottom to top. The second two digits refer to column numbers, which are on the top and bottom of the map. The numbering of the columns is from right to left. For example, the identification number for the San Bernardino 15-minute quadrangle is 0714, because the San Bernardino quadrangle is in row 07 and column 14 of the map grid. Map Sheets I The second category of references in the bibliography is based on the system of map sheets (scale 1:250,000) published by the U.S. Geological Survey (pi. 1). Most of the map sheets cover 1 degree of longitude by 2 degrees of latitude. The index map for the map sheets is in the lower left corner of plate 1. The name of each map sheet is included on the index map. In the bibliography, the map sheets are listed in alphabetical order, and the references compiled for each map sheet are alphabetized by senior author. Military Reservations and National Monuments The third category of the bibliography consists of references for selected military reservations and national monuments in southern California. Four military reservations and two national monuments were included in the biblio­ graphy. The index map for this (and the following) category is on the left side of plate 1 above the map-sheets index map. The military reservations and national monuments are listed in alphabetical order in the bibliography, and the references are alphabetized by senior author within each subdivision.

  • Wilderness Visitors and Recreation Impacts: Baseline Data Available for Twentieth Century Conditions
    United States Department of Agriculture Wilderness Visitors and Forest Service Recreation Impacts: Baseline Rocky Mountain Research Station Data Available for Twentieth General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-117 Century Conditions September 2003 David N. Cole Vita Wright Abstract __________________________________________ Cole, David N.; Wright, Vita. 2003. Wilderness visitors and recreation impacts: baseline data available for twentieth century conditions. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-117. Ogden, UT: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 52 p. This report provides an assessment and compilation of recreation-related monitoring data sources across the National Wilderness Preservation System (NWPS). Telephone interviews with managers of all units of the NWPS and a literature search were conducted to locate studies that provide campsite impact data, trail impact data, and information about visitor characteristics. Of the 628 wildernesses that comprised the NWPS in January 2000, 51 percent had baseline campsite data, 9 percent had trail condition data and 24 percent had data on visitor characteristics. Wildernesses managed by the Forest Service and National Park Service were much more likely to have data than wildernesses managed by the Bureau of Land Management and Fish and Wildlife Service. Both unpublished data collected by the management agencies and data published in reports are included. Extensive appendices provide detailed information about available data for every study that we located. These have been organized by wilderness so that it is easy to locate all the information available for each wilderness in the NWPS. Keywords: campsite condition, monitoring, National Wilderness Preservation System, trail condition, visitor characteristics The Authors _______________________________________ David N.

    Mount Assiniboine Park Management Plan Part of the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks World Heritage Site November 2012 Cover Page Photo Credit: Christian Kimber (Park Ranger) This document replaces the direction provided in the Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park Master Plan (1989). Mount Assiniboine Park Management Plan Approved by: November 15, 2012 ______________________________ __________________ Tom Bell Date Regional Director, Kootenay Okanagan Region BC Parks November 15, 2012 ______________________________ __________________ Brian Bawtinheimer Date Executive Director, Parks Planning and Management Branch BC Parks Plan Highlights The management vision for Mount Assiniboine Park is that the park continues to be an international symbol of the pristine scenic grandeur of British Columbia’s wilderness and the recreational enjoyment it offers. Key elements of the management plan include strategies to: Implement a zoning plan that enhances the emphasis on Mount Assiniboine Park’s value both as a component of a UNESCO World Heritage Site (which protects significant examples of Canadian Rocky Mountain ecosystems) and as the location of an internationally recognized wilderness recreation feature associated with heritage structures from the earliest days of facility-based backcountry tourism in the Canadian Rockies. Approximately 86% of the park is zoned as Wilderness Recreation, 13% is zoned as Nature Recreation, less than 1% is zoned as Special Feature and less than 0.01% is zoned as Intensive Recreation. Develop an ecosystem management strategy that coordinates management of vegetation and wildlife in the park with that of adjacent protected areas under other agencies’ jurisdiction and with activities on adjacent provincial forest lands. This includes a proposal to prepare a vegetation management strategy to maintain or restore natural disturbance regimes (i.e., insects, disease and fire) wherever possible.

    Welcome to the 32nd Annual Wild Flower Hotline, brought to you by the Theodore Payne Foundation, a non-profit plant nursery, seed source, book store, and education center dedicated to the preservation of wild flowers and California native plants. This a report for March 21, 2014. New reports will be posted each Friday through the end of May. The Mojave Desert is still the place to be this week, although I will include a few more good sights as many of you are starting Spring Break and may want to explore other areas as well. Let’s start with our first report from the Southern Sierra near Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks. The park region has had a dry season. Blooming appears to be early and short, but along Hwy 198 near Sequoia National Park look for Western redbud (Cercis occidentalis) in full bloom now. There have been spotty sightings of silver bush lupine (Lupinus albifrons) as well. There are bright orange patches of fiddleneck (Amsinckia menziesii) and the California poppies (Eschscholzia californica) are just starting to appear. Further north at Yosemite/Hetch Hetchy, flowers are starting to bloom, but it is still early in the season. Because of the Rim Fire last year, the only trail available is the one from the dam to Wapama and Rancheria Falls. (The trail to Poopenaut Valley is closed.) In the moist areas look for red maids (Calandrinia ciliata), and a few harlequin lupines (Lupinus stiversii), which are just getting started. Some of the larger pools of flowing water still contain Sierra newts (Taricha sierrae).
