Abstract:
The components of this project were the physical characterization of the stream channel, assessments of the riparian vegetation and macrofaunal surveys. In continental systems, assessments of the physical and riparian conditions of streams have been used to improve water budgets and to identify areas of risk to flooding and habitat degradation. The physical properties of the stream bed and bank are critically important determinants of habitat availability, stream discharge, and transport. Similarly, the composition of the riparian community can influence instream productivity, nutrient cycling, water level, as well as the physical structure of the river. Nevertheless, previous surveys of Guam streams have generally ignored the importance of these parameters"--Introduction.
