Northern Colorado Plateau Network. 2019. Predicting Vegetation and Topographic Change in Response to Altered River Flows. National Park Service
Summarizes the results of a study testing a model evaluting ecosystem response to flow-regime changes on the Yampa and Green rivers, Dinosaur National Monument. Full results may be found in R. M. Diehl, A. C. Wilcox, D. M. Merritt, D. W. Perkins, and J. A. Scott. 2018. Development of an eco-geomorphic modeling framework to evaluate riparian ecosystem response to flow-regime changes. Ecological Engineering 123:112–126.
