Project Description

Conduct a GIS-based regional assessment (w/ the possibility of a field-based component) of water table in ephemeral streams of the region to determine restoration potential (use of ground-penetrating LIDAR or other remote sensing data/techniques); model/project likelihood of restoration success given environmental conditions identified that influence restoration
