Excerpt from Some Effects of Shade Cover on Stream Temperature in Southeast AlaskaThe cooling effects of streamside vegetation on stream temperatures were observed by who reported a decrease of 12° F. As a stream in North Carolina meandered 400 feet through forest and brush cover.These scattered studies indicate that under various conditions, and in different areas of the United States, streamside vegetation is significant in determining the temperature regimen of a stream. In my study, I wished to determine the role of streamside vegetation under the cool, moist conditions of southeast Alaska. The study objectives were (1) to develop a practical method for measuring the effects of shade on stream temperature, and (2) to conduct exploratory studies of the relations between stream cover and water temperature.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
