Metric Selection to Establish a Condition Gradient Between Natural and Impaired Northeast Ohio Headwater Stream Systems as a Basis for Evaluation of Restorative Performance

Category : Biology
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
Stream restoration has become a billion dollar industry, with hundreds of large projects constructed each year. But even after thousands of restorations across the nation, no standardized framework for evaluating restoration progress exists. Such a framework should reflect the unique challenges and opportunities of stream ecosystems, while aiding in communication among practitioners. More importantly, it could help to facilitate the identification of a clear, defined, and practical set of metrics specifically designed for field evaluation. Here I present some of the major elements required for such a framework, and field test several metrics that may be used for evaluation. This framework starts from the proposition that restoration projects involve transitions between three different stages of condition: Initial (starting point of a project), Intermediate (situation upon restoration completion), and Target (an idealized future state). The proposed framework focuses attention on these transitions by scoring metrics related to structural and functional characteristics common to all stream systems (i.e., floodplain, flow, sediment, etc.). I evaluated 53 potential metrics on ten headwater streams in Northeast Ohio and assessed the metrics' suitability for appraising the progress of a restoration from the Initial Condition towards the Target Condition. Metric suitability was determined by statistical separation (p
