This literature review addresses how wide a streamside forest buffer needs to be to protect
water quality, habitat, and biota for small streams (≤~ 100 km2 or~ 5th order watershed) …

Many rivers are classified as groundwater-dependent ecosystems (GDEs), owing to the
contribution of groundwater to their base flow. However, there has been little explicit …

Riparian buffers, the vegetated region adjacent to streams and wetlands, are thought to be
effective at intercepting and reducing nitrogen loads entering water bodies. Riparian buffer …

Climate change negotiations, assessments, and greenhouse gas inventory guidelines have
all but bypassed bamboo. Disallowing stands of tree-like bamboos as forests disparages …

Nutrients in overland flow from agricultural areas are a common cause of stream and lake
water quality impairment. One method of reducing excess nutrient runoff from non-point …

Many studies have compared corn-based ethanol to cellulosic ethanol on a per unit basis
and have generally concluded that cellulosic ethanol will result in fewer environmental …

Nutrient pollution is a pervasive water quality problem. Stream restoration has been
proposed as a novel approach to reduce loading and increase nutrient processing within …

This study evaluates a conceptual model developed for riparian zones in Ontario, Canada,
that links landscape hydrogeological characteristics to riparian ground water hydrology and …

This chapter focuses on upland and riparian forest buffers in the agricultural landscape. To
appreciate the role of the riparian forest and upland buffer communities in the landscape …
