Supplementary Notes <br />-I& Abstract (Limit: 200 words) <br />Stream channels in the semi-arid intermountain west have been modified for many years by <br />agricultural interests, primarily to provide flood-protection. Little information has <br />been available on the long-term physical and biological consequences of channel modifi- <br />cation in this geographic region. Of special concern is the relationship between stream <br />channel modification and the high value fishery resource. This report describes an <br />investigation of the effects of stream channelization on fish and macroinvertebrates <br />in low gradient reaches of Blacksmith Fork River and the Logan River in the floodplain <br />of Cache Valley in northern Utah. Channelization adversely affected both fish and macro- <br />invertebrate populations and biomass, with the severity of impact directly related to <br />the amount and duration of disturbance of the physical habitat. <br />17.
