“R1‐R4” AND “BOISED” SEDIMENT PREDICTION MODEL TESTS USING FOREST ROADS IN GRANITICS1

Abstract: Erosion and sedimentation data from research watersheds in the Silver Creek Study Area in central Idaho were used to test the prediction of logging road erosion using the R1-R4 sediment yield model, and sediment delivery using the "BOISED" sediment yield prediction model. Three small watersheds were instrumented and monitored such that erosion from newly constructed roads and sediment delivery to the mouths of the watersheds could be measured for four years following road construction. The errors for annual su… Show more

“…data). Event-based road-surface erosion values are from observed, post-construction erosion (4-year average yield, Ketcheson et al, 1999). within a given study region, climate-driven changes in the supply and transport of bed load material may not be realized to downstream reservoirs for centuries to millennia.…”

Erosion of organic and nutrient rich surface soil and compaction decreases forest productivity (Pritchett and Fisher, 1987) and the transport of sediment to streams and subsequent sedimentation leads to loss of stream habitat and altered steam hydrology (NCASI, 1999a(NCASI, , 1999b.…”

“…Mechanized harvesting has the potential not only to increase production but also to reduce labour costs resulting in lower total logging costs. Timber forest harvesting operations in the terrain require the construction of a relatively dense network of forest roads, including skid roads, haul roads and landings (Ketcheson et al 1999).…”
