<br />FWS/OBS-76/15. A STUDY OF THE EFFECTS OF STREAM CHANNELIZATION AND BANK <br />STABILIZATION ON WARM WATER SPORT FISH IN IOWA: Subproject No.5. <br />Effects of long-Reach Stream Channelization on ~istribution and Abundance <br />of Fishes. Bruce W. Menzel and Harland l. Fierstine. 1976. 108 pp. <br /> <br />A study of the relationships between habitat characteristics and the <br />distribution and abundance of fishes in 11 natural and channelized warm- <br />water stream segments of the upper Des Moines River. Species diversity <br />was generally greatest in unchannelized woodland stream segments. <br /> <br />FWS/OBS-76/16. WARM WATER STREAM ALTERATION IN IOWA: Extent, Effects on <br />Habitat Fish and Fish Food, and Evaluation of Stream Improvement <br />Structures (Summary Report). R. V. Bulkley et al. 1976. 39 pp. <br /> <br />A summary of the results in five other subproject reports (FWS/OBS-76/11 <br />to 76/15). Studies were conducted from 1973 to 1976 to determine the <br />extent of stream channelization in Iowa, differences in populations of <br />fi sh and fi sh food organi sms in channel i zed and unchanne 1 i zed streams, <br />effects of stream a lterat ions for hi ghway bri dge construction, and the <br />value of stream-bank stabilization structures to fish habitat. <br /> <br />FWS/OBS-76/17. COAL PROJECT: FIVE-YEAR FRAMEWORK (FY 1976 THROUGH FY 1980). <br />1976. 44 pp. <br /> <br />This report presents the scope of the framework for the Coal Project over <br />the next five years. The project's purpose is to provide the expertise <br />and necessary information to allow for effective involvement of the U.S. <br />Fish and Wildlife Service in national coal development actions. <br /> <br />FWS/OBS-76/18. COAL PROJECT: <br />MANAGEMENT). 1976. 40 pp. <br /> <br />BACKGROUND INFORMATION (PLANNING AND <br /> <br />Thi s report presents summary i nformat i on on coal development in the <br />United States and material on the potential interactions of that develop- <br />ment with fi sh and wi 1 dl ife resources. Coverage is provi ded on the <br />recently initiated Federal Coal leasing Program and a discussion of <br />biogeographic considerations is included. <br /> <br />FWS/OBS-76/19.
