Science Pub: As I Lay Drying:
What Causes Rivers to Go Dry and What Can be Done About It?
This talk explores river restoration research underway across Central Oregon and beyond that is attempting to address water quality and habitat for salmon, steelhead and other wildlife on Whychus Creek, the Upper Crooked River and Thirtymile Creek. It also invites reflection on what successful restoration looks like — and how communities can seek common ground in caring for local rivers when restoration visions diverge.
