Habitat Simulation Technique as a Powerful Tool for Instream Flow Needs Assessment and River Ecosystem Management
Instream flow needs (IFN) assessment studies are performed to provide guidelines for stream water management and to assess the impacts of different water projects such as weirs, dams and stream diversions on the available fish habitat. The physical habitat simulation is one of the IFN assessment methods and also a powerful tool in management of river ecosystem that has not become a common metho...
متن کاملHabitat Restoration as a Recovery Tool for a Disturbance-Dependent Butterfly, The Endangered St. Francis’ Satyr
Habitat restoration is a key management strategy for species that experience loss, fragmentation or degradation of their habitat. The St. Francis’ satyr is a federally endangered butterfly found only on Ft. Bragg Army Installation in North Carolina that depends on frequent disturbance to maintain its preferred habitat, ephemeral wetlands. Over the course of 4 years, we restored and maintained c...
متن کاملSwine Lagoon Wastewater Treatment in Marsh- Pond/Floating Wetland-Marsh Constructed Wetland
Constructed wetlands have been used effectively to reduce the mass loads of organic and nutrient components from swine anaerobic lagoons. Continuous marsh wetlands with gentle slope and intermittent flows seem to be the best for promoting oxidation and minimizing ammonia volatilization. However, the pond section of the marsh-pond-marsh section could potentially be effectively aerated by mechani...
متن کاملHabitat restoration affects immature stages of a wetland butterfly through indirect effects on predation.
Habitat loss worldwide has led to the widespread use of restoration practices for the recovery of imperiled species. However, recovery success may be hampered by focusing on plant communities, rather than the complex suite of direct and indirect interactions among trophic levels that occur in natural systems. Through a factorial field experiment, we tested the effects of wetland restoration on ...
متن کاملThe runnelling method of habitat modification: an environment-focused tool for salt marsh mosquito management.
Traditional methods of managing salt marsh mosquitoes focus primarily on maximizing the reduction of mosquito populations, with minimizing environmental impact as a secondary consideration. An environment-oriented approach to salt marsh management for mosquito control, runnelling, is described and compared with other forms of habitat modification such as ditching and Open Marsh Water Management...
