Sherm Swanson

Emeritus

Summary

An a rangeland and riparian scientist, I work with graduate students and colleagues in the University, State and federal agencies and others to study the interrelationships among streams, riparian vegetation, watershed hydrology, land forms, land uses, fire, water quality, and fish and wildlife habitat. 

 

As an extension educator, Riparian Specialist for ΒιΆΉΣ³»­ Cooperative Extension, I teach riparian ecology and management, emphasizing the structure needed for dissipating energy, storing water, ameliorating floods and droughts, forming habitats and enhancing water quality. I coordinate the interagency ΒιΆΉΣ³»­ Creeks and Communities Team that teaches Riparian Proper Functioning Condition Assessment
