Description
It has been suggested in a number of recent reports that the decline in native fish populations in the Colorado River system is due primarily to habitat loss and environmental changes associated with the construction of reservoirs and water diversions. However until we began examining this issue no one had actually determined the significance of channel change on the Colorado River nor had the link between flow regulation and channel change been well...

Description
This report investigates the impact of highways and landscape connectivity in Colorado. To do so, it describes three complementary research questions. Given the threat of roads to both wildlife populations and human safety, describing the distribution of animal-vehicle collisions (AVC) is a necessary step in understanding potential roadway impacts.

Description
The objective of this project was to assess the efficacy of post-fire ground treatment in mitigating erosion and runoff on soil slopes subjected to wildfires. This objective was achieved through physical slope-model experiments and discrete element method (DEM) modeling. Model simulations indicated that an increase in the root network inhibited particles dislodgement and decreased downslope movement of particles.
