Our lab has been heavily involved in the development of the CHaMP (Columbia Habitat Monitoring Protocol), which just completed its first season. An overview of the CHaMP can be seen in this video: At the Post Pilot Season Workshop from November 29 - December 1st, we presented our research looking at the influence of crew variability and the exploration of alternative topographic survey techniques: - Wheaton JM and Bangen SG. 2011 (invited).

Chris Gibbins, John Wainwright and I just finished editing a special issue on ' Multiscale Feedbacks in Ecogemorphology', based on contributions to an AGU session we hosted a few years ago. Chris Gibbins, John Wainwright, Laurel Larsen and Brandon McElroy and I coauthored the preface on this special issue which spans feedbacks in wetland, fluvial and upland systems (Wheaton et al. 2011). Wheaton JM, Gibbins C, Wainwright J, Larsen L and McElroy B. 2011. Preface: Multiscale Feedbacks in Ecogeomorphology☆. Geomorphology. 126(3-4): 265-268. DOI: 10.1016/j.geomorph.2011.01.002. |

2011 STREAM RESTORATION COURSES in Park City, Utah Intermountain Center for River Rehabilitation and Restoration Utah State University
To register or view more information about the courses, visit our website at: http://cnr.usu.edu/streamrestoration/ Park City, Utah
This
intensive 2-day workshop is intended for resource managers, restoration
practitioners, researchers, and others involved in the monitoring of
rivers and streams. Participants will come away with an understanding of
the theory and tools used to detect geomorphic change based on repeat
topographic data using a variety of ground-based and remotely-sensed
surveying technologies. In addition, students will gain a working
knowledge of how to apply the newly-developed Geomorphic Change
Detection software to their own monitoring data. Case study examples
will be drawn from baseline monitoring and post-project monitoring of
restoration projects. Instruction team is led by Joe Wheaton (Utah State) and Philip Bailey (ESSA Technologies Ltd).
Park City, Utah Part I is intended for resource managers, practitioners, graduate students, and others involved in the planning and implementation of restoration projects. The course provides an overview of the history of stream restoration and approaches, the application of fluvial geomorphology to channel assessment and design, general principles of sediment transport, ecological assessment of stream health and habitat, riparian vegetation dynamics and management alternatives, and post-project monitoring. Class time is spent equally in lecture and field activities at restoration sites. Instruction team is led by Jack Schmidt (Utah State) and Phaedra Budy (Utah State). Park City, Utah Part II is intended for those who wish to understand and apply the principles of alluvial channel design. Principles of open channel flow and sediment transport are combined with watershed-scale, hydrologic and sediment source analyses to place channel design in a larger-scale context. Threshold and alluvial channel design are presented along with guidelines for assessing and incorporating uncertainty into design plans. The course involves a hands-on channel design exercise and incorporation of GIS data bases into channel design planning. Instruction team is led by Peter Wilcock (Johns Hopkins University), Joe Wheaton (Utah State), Patrick Belmont (Utah State), and Tyler Allred (Allred Restoration Inc.). Logan, Utah This 3-day workshop is intended for resource managers, restoration practitioners, researchers, and others interested in collaborating with beaver in the restoration of rivers and streams. Participants will gain (a) an appreciation of beaver ecology and the complex feedbacks among beaver activity, hydro-geomorphic responses, riparian vegetation and fish ecology; (b) knowledge of past and ongoing restoration projects using beaver; (c) a working understanding of issues in restoration design that use beaver; (d) an introduction of how to develop dynamic designs utilizing beaver; and, (e) how to manage public expectations regarding potential restoration responses involving beaver. The workshop will include field trips to a number of restoration sites impacted by beaver, active local beaver colonies, hands-on design exercises, and some interactive lectures and discussions. Instruction team is led by Joe Wheaton (Utah State), Nick Bouwes (Utah State), Michael Pollock (NOAA Fisheries), and Chris Jordan (NOAA Fisheries). |

After caving to pressure and confusion from colleagues who couldn't distinguish DoD (DEM of Diffference) from Department of Defense, we have renamed our DoD Uncertainty Analysis Software to GCD. GCD stands for Geomorphic Change Detection, and will hopefully be clearer (other GCD acronyms). See here for more information. |
