Topic: Riparian Ecosystem: Decrease erosion potential by reseeding and restoration, which can be used following disturbances and for vulnerable exposed soil surfaces (near roads, or after fire). (View All Topics in the Plan)
Develop a geospatial layer of debris flow potential for pre-fire planning.
Link stream inventory with topographic, geomorphic, and vegetation layers to assess existing hazard and risk for flooding and erosion.
Implement streambank stabilization and floodplain restoration techniques to help reduce bank erosion from higher flows.
Continue and expand monitoring of existing riparian communities using GIS/remote sensing.
Restore and revegetate riparian plant communities where needed to store sediment and maintain channel geomorphology.
