For <br />example, the Rush Creek diversion creates an artificial hydJ'ograph peak in <br />July, as opposed to the prediverslon peak In June (the d!verslon peak is twenty <br />percent of the prediversion peak). As a consequence the main growth period for <br />black cottonwood shifted from May -- predlverslon, to July/August __ diversion <br />(Stronberg and Patte~l 1990). The annual diameter Incr'e~ent also deCreaS(!5 as a <br />result of the poereI' growth conditions (temperature, relative hU::lidit.y, soil <br />noi.!ture to name a few) that OCcur during the later "growing season." <br /> <br />StroDberg and Patten (1991) determined that the presence of cottonwood cannot <br />be interpreted as an indicator of sufficient flous. The flows necessary to <br />ensure cottonwood recruitment are different than those which rr.alntain ekistlng <br />cottonwood stands -- both in Quantity and in timing. In general, maintenance <br />flows are less than ~ecruitnent flows, so even if the current cottonwood stands <br />persist regeneratien will not occur if maintenance is the only objective. They <br />also concluded that growth and flow relationships can a1d in determining <br />riparian based streamflow requlrement.~, presuming that plant individual and <br />community maintenance is dependent on certain levels of growth rates (Stfombcrg <br />and Pattan 1990). <br /> <br />Sweden <br /> <br />Host riparian habitat in SHed en has been affected by streamflow regulation. <br />The effect has been th~ complete de3truction ~f riparian habitat, although some <br />individual species h,nve adapted to r:e... environ..,ents.
