    Dynamics of Plains Cottonwood (Populus deltoides) Forests and Historical Landscape Change along Unchannelized Segments of the Missouri River, USA

    Construction of six large dams and reservoirs on the Missouri River over the last 50–75 years has resulted in major landscape changes and alterations in flow patterns, with implications for riparian forests do...

    Early Vegetation Development on an Exposed Reservoir: Implications for Dam Removal

    The 4-year drawdown of Horsetooth Reservoir, Colorado, for dam maintenance, provides a case study analog of vegetation response on sediment that might be exposed from removal of a tall dam. Early vegetation re...

    Responses of Riparian Cottonwoods to Alluvial Water Table Declines

    Human demands for surface and shallow alluvial groundwater have contributed to the loss, fragmentation, and simplification of riparian ecosystems. Populus species typically dominate riparian ecosystems through...

    Water Management and Cottonwood Forest Dynamics Along Prairie Streams

    Because riparian ecosystems are the principal natural forest in the prairie, they provide important habitat for many vertebrates (Brinson et al. 1981). Thus changes in the abundance and patterns of riparian fo...

    Restoration of riparian forest using irrigation, artificial disturbance, and natural seedfall

    In interior western North America, many riparian forests dominated by cottonwood and willow are failing to reproduce downstream of dams. We tested the hypothesis that establishment is now prevented by absence ...
