Abstract:
Planners of stabilization or restoration w projects should consider the benefits of irrigation systems to reduce the risk of plant S material loss to drought (Figure 1). pi Reestablishment of vegetation lost to in drought is very costly and, lacking good root establishment, the performance of the ui stabilization or restoration project may be compromised. Irrigation is typically required pi only in the first one or two growing seasons; tE thus, systems that can be removed and reused for other projects are desirable. w Irrigation plans should be based on evaluating the site and the expected M operating conditions. The soils and a topography must be suitable for the type of bi irrigation selected. A sufficient quantity and quality of water should be available before fr any such siphon is considered.
