CLBMON-33 Arrow Lakes Reservoir Inventory of Vegetation Resources
Author: M.T. Miller, P. Gibeau, V.C. Hawkes, Okanagan Nation Alliance, B.C. Westbank, L.G.L.
To assess and map the distribution of existing vegetation in the drawdown zone of the Arrow Lakes Reservoir. The primary objectives of this 10-year study are: (i) to monitor trends in the spatial extent, structure, and composition of vegetation communities within the 434-440 m ASL elevation band in relation to inundation cycles; and (ii) to assess if implementation of the Water Use Plan operating regime (2007-2017), including soft constraints, is effective at maintaining vegetation communities at the local and landscape scales.
