PDF-Riparian buffers are the single most effective protect

These strips of grass shrubs andor trees along the banks of rivers and streams filter polluted runoff and provide a transition zone between water and human land use Buffers are also complex ecosystems that provide habitat and improve the stream comm.

Abstract: Dryland river basins frequently support both irrigated agriculture and riparian vegetation and remote sensing methods are needed to monitor water use by both crops and natural vegetation in irrigation districts.
