Title: Long-term aquatic habitat restoration: Mahogany Creek, Nevada, as a case study: Journal: Water Resources Bulletin; Authors: T. J. Myers, and S. Swanson; Date: 1996; Summary: The long-term recovery from abusive grazing of an aquatic habitat and limitations of this recovery was assessed on two watersheds in the Black Rock Mountains of northwestern Nevada.

The development of long-term monitoring programs requires reviews of background and historical information to provide precise definitions of long-term objectives, planning considerations and monitoring procedures. Procedures need to be identified, during the planning process, that apply management standards to variable conditions encountered within natural ecosystems and that detect the timing of ...; Agrovoc Control Words: Riparian zones, Rangelands, Wildlife; View more details about this article
