Boyle TP, Hoefs NJ, Beeson DR. 1993. Inventory of the aquatic resources of the Virgin River Ecosystem, Zion National Park, Utah. National Park Service, Water Resources Division, Applied Research Branch. Fort Collins, Colorado
In this study the RCC served as a framework to identify critical ecological variables for collection and to interpret data from the Virgin River. This resource inventory of the Virgin River ecosystem was designed to provide Zion National Park with a database that can be used to establish the ecological status of the aquatic communities in the river, serve as a baseline on which to monitor and assess future change, and predict changes in community attributes due to alteration of hydrological regimes.
