Description
The project will include a conservation opportunity assessment within the watershed, focusing on identifying areas of the river corridor where restoration is possible, then narrowing the scope through a prioritization evaluation. The project will also create a water budgets and conceptual designs for a prioritized subset of restoration projects identified. Although frequently intermittent, the middle santa cruz river historically flowed seasonally and supported a large mesquite forest. Due to climate change, development pressures, and decline in groundwater levels, flows in the middle santa cruz river have decreased and the mesquite forests have disappeared. The sonoran institute and collaborative's goal is to restore flows in the middle santa cruz river and restore riparian areas to improve riparian habitat and increase aquifer recharge. The middle basin of the santa cruz river watershed encompasses a complex mix of urban communities, agricultural lands, native nations, and federal, state, and local public lands.
