| Title | Evaluating the Conservation Potential of Tributaries for Native Fishes in the Upper Colorado River Basin |
| Creator | Laub, Brian G. Thiede, Gary P. Macfarlane, William W. Budy, Phaedra E. |
| Description | We explored the conservation potential of tributaries in the upper Colorado River basin by modeling native fish species richness as a function of river discharge, temperature, barrier‐free length, and distance to nearest free‐flowing main‐stem section. We investigated a historic period prior to large‐scale water development and a contemporary period. In the historic period, species richness was log‐linearly correlated to variables capturing flow magnitude, particularly mean annual discharge.... |
