Relevant for the CROSSLINK project: #riparianbuffers should be prioritized along low order streams (< 3rd order) to best capture the scaling characteristics of regional effects, but buffering mid-order streams may be more cost effective https://t.co/…
Riparian buffers reduce subsurface nutrient losses to streams but there is a clear need to identify and prioritize locations for riparian buffer placement to optimize buffer performance https://t.co/WjNxtYjJ88
A recent article in Landscape Ecology, by Schilling, Jacobson, and Wolter, evaluated the patterns of sediments, water quality and land use in southern Iowa riparian zones, allowing recommendations for the placement of riparian buffers. See the article …
