| Description: |
"This paper discusses the characteristics and history of the upper Russian River, (basically the section located in Mendocino County), and the effects of man's activities upon it. It is impossible to determine what specific actions produced which observed effects on the Russian River. But special attention is given to possible reasons for down-cutting, siltation, non-native plant infestation, riparian devegetation, and fish habitat degradation--all in the light of what methods people were using over the years to alter the river area for reasons of flood control, farming, irrigation, water storage, gravel extraction, recreation improvement, improving fish life for sportsmen, sewage disposal, and many more possible purposes." |
