conditions on the Colorado River before operation <br />of a potash complex. An ecosystem approach to <br />the analysis reveals that the lower Colorado <br />River is a detritus based food source. Primary <br />production is low because turbidity precludes <br />photosynthesis of benthic periphyton. Shifting <br />substrates also inhibit production by primary <br />source and footed vegetation. Water quality <br />analyses shows that dissolved oxygen, pH, are <br />not subject to wide variation, but turbidity, <br />TDS, and flow vary seasonally and with local <br />weather conditions. Fish collections revealed <br />the threatened and endangered humpback sucker <br />(Xyrauchen texanus), bony tail chub (Gila <br />robusta), and squawfish (Ptychocheilus lucius). <br />148.
