Abstract

The United States has more than 3.5 million miles of rivers and streams that, along with closely associated floodplain and upland areas, comprise corridors of great economic, social, cultural, and environmental value. These corridors support higher rates of biological productivity than almost any other landscape feature. They also contribute significantly to each military installation's unique character. Interest in restoring stream corridor ecosystems is expanding rapidly in the United States. With this in mind, 15 federal agencies formed the Federal Interagency Stream Restoration Working Group in 1995 to seek consensus on the fundamentals of modern approaches to stream restoration and to promote awareness and use of these methods throughout the nation. This unprecedented collaboration produced a comprehensive publication, entitled Stream Corridor Restoration: Principles, Processes, and Practices, which has begun to serve as a foundation of stream corridor restoration knowledge and practice nationwide. Attention to these aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems is a common theme of both Integrated Training Area Management (ITAM) program and stream corridor restoration. ITAM is the Army's strategy for focusing on sustained use of training and testing lands. Cross-program innovation and field-tested stream restoration methods can combine to provide greater sustainability for Department of Defense maneuver areas and ranges over both the short and long term.

将河道廊道修复技术应用于训练土地修复与维护
美国有350多万英里的河流和溪流,以及与之紧密相连的洪泛平原和高地地区,构成了具有巨大经济、社会、文化和环境价值的走廊。这些廊道支持的生物生产力比几乎任何其他景观特征都要高。它们也为每个军事设施的独特特征做出了重大贡献。在美国,对恢复河流走廊生态系统的兴趣正在迅速扩大。考虑到这一点,15个联邦机构于1995年成立了联邦跨部门河流恢复工作组,就现代河流恢复方法的基本原理寻求共识,并在全国范围内提高对这些方法的认识和使用。这种前所未有的合作产生了一份全面的出版物,题为“河流走廊恢复:原则,过程和实践”,它已经开始成为全国河流走廊恢复知识和实践的基础。关注这些水生和陆地生态系统是综合训练区管理(ITAM)计划和河流走廊恢复的共同主题。ITAM是陆军专注于持续使用训练和测试用地的战略。跨项目创新和现场测试的流恢复方法可以结合在一起,为国防部的机动区域和范围提供更大的可持续性,无论是短期还是长期。
