Kansas Stream - Fact of the Month

Erosion is still a problem along rivers and streams where natural vegetation has been removed, either naturally or by mechanical means.  Streambanks with healthy riparian timber erode six times slower than streambanks without trees.

S. Army Corps of Engineers, Kansas Department of Agriculture - Division of Water Resources, Kansas Forest Service, State Conservation Commission, U. S.
