Enviroscape® Riparian Kit

EnviroScape's Riparian Kit addresses the benefits and values of riparian buffers — areas including trees and other vegetation adjacent to the banks of streams, rivers and lakes. The kit's guide explores the positive effects of good riparian buffers as well as activities that contribute to poor riparian buffer zones.

Positive effects include

cooler water temperatures and shading for in-stream organisms (canopy cover);

reduced volume and rate of flooding (water infiltration);

food sources for in-stream organisms (protective habitat);

stream bank stabilization (erosion control);

sediment trapping and nutrient removal (plant root systems); and

recreational corridors.

The Users Guide details five activities to demonstrate:

Nonpoint source pollution on sparse landscape

Moderate flow of water and absorption of roots

Nutrient removal

Water temperature and food

Wildlife habitat and aesthetic values

The Riparian Kit contains components for a complete demonstration of how riparian buffers affect water quality, quantity and flow. Each kit contains 40 trees (30 tall (evergreen) and 10 round (deciduous)), shrubs, clay, assorted roots, flashlight and User's Guide, and can be used with all EnviroScape scenarios.

This Kit cannot be used by itself ... you need to purchase one of the EnviroScape units.
