Tripp, D.B., P.J. Tschaplinski, S.A. Bird and D.L. Hogan. 2009. Field Supplement to
Evaluating the Condition of Streams and Riparian Management Areas (Riparian
Management Routine Effectiveness Evaluation). Forest and Range Evaluation Program,
B.C. Min. For. Range, Victoria, B.C. |
| Resource Purpose |
The field supplement provides guidance on what information is needed and how it should be collected and recorded for each indicator listed on the riparian field cards. While not as complete as the full protocol,
the supplement also tries to describe the indicators so that they can be readily identified in the field.The field supplement does not offer guidance on how to answer each of the 15 questions on the riparian field cards. This guidance is provided in the protocol and to a large extent by the questions themselves. However, with a complete understanding, evaluation and measurement of each indicator on the field cards, completion of the questions should be straight forward. |
