The Environmental Sciences Department is offering this grant to conduct comprehensive research on the eco-hydrological effects of flow diversion on the Snake Creek riparian ecosystem. This grant is specifically for understanding the physical processes within the Snake Creek riparian ecosystem under both modified and natural flow regimes. The project aims to document how these processes drive crucial ecosystem interactions throughout the river corridor. This vital research requires a detailed assessment of the fluvial system, including the composition and ecophysiology of riparian vegetation, surface water flows, and critical groundwater-surface water interactions, ultimately informing better resource management strategies.

Description: | The primary objectives of the project are to: 1) document the eco-hydrological effects of the diversion on Snake Creek to its riparian ecosystem, and 2) understand the physical processes that occur in the Snake Creek riparian ecosystem under both modified and natural flow regimes, including how the processes drive ecosystem interactions throughout the river corridor. This requires an assessment of the fluvial system, including the riparian vegetation’s composition and ecophysiology, the surface water flows, and groundwater-surface water interactions. |
