EnviroScape® Environmental Restoration and Riparian Kit

EnviroScape® Restoration and Riparian Kit
* JT&A, inc. © 1990-2010 |
EnviroScape's Environmental Restoration and Riparian Kit addresses the benefits and values of restoring the environment and adding riparian buffers — including planting trees and other vegetation adjacent to the banks of streams, rivers and lakes. You can even reforest the clear-cut forest. The guide explores the positive effects of environmental restoration, replanting vegetation and good riparian buffers as well as activities that contribute to a degraded environment and 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 Environmental Restoration and Riparian Kit contains components for a complete demonstration of how restoration activities and riparian buffers positively 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 is not a stand alone kit and cannot be used by itself ... but will enhance and expand on any of the EnviroScape® units.
