The goal of this study was to formulate recommendations for long term monitoring programs and strategies to protect the riparian areas within the Park. In order to achieve these goals, the present hydrology and flora of the riparian areas must be characterized and quantified. Information on the effects of antecedent stresses needs to be developed and the changes in hydrology, climate and land use quantified.
