Abstract/Description or Keywords |
This report evaluates four inter-related components essential for silvicultural planning on the lower Skeena River floodplain: biophysical information, erosion potential, flooding characteristics and environmental fate of herbicides. These components are detailed so the approach can be applied in other floodplain areas. Detialed biophysical data of direct relevance to forest management on the Skeena River floodplain are presented. These data include: 1) the annual groundwater regime and its driving forces; 2) the stratigraphy of the alluvial deposits; 3) the physical characteristics of the osil; and 4) the climatic regime of both the air and soil. |
