Avian Diversity, Vegetation Composition, and Vegetation Structure of the Las Vegas Wash: Year Two–Revised Draft Report

Braden GT, Crew L, Miller A. 2008. Avian Diversity, Vegetation Composition, and Vegetation Structure of the Las Vegas Wash: Year Two–Revised Draft Report. San Bernardino County Museum, Biological Sciences Division. Redlands, CA

San Bernardino County Museum biologists (SBCM) were contracted by the Wash Team in 2005 to initiate avian and vegetative data collection at multiple sites along the lower Wash. The resulting data serve two purposes. First, the data define the baseline avian and habitat resources. Baseline conditions are reported in Braden et al. (2007). Second, the data sets enable future monitoring to evaluate changes in avian and habitat resources as the bank and channel stabilization and revegetation efforts proceed. This document reports on the second year of data collection by SBCM and changes in avian habitats and avian diversity of the Wash from year one to year two.
