Playa wetlands in the Southern High Plains provide services such as stormwater storage, groundwater recharge, and biodiversity provisioning. However, watershed erosion has negatively impacted these services. Previously, we demonstrated that water loss rate was influenced by land use variables such as watershed cultivation (tilled index) and playa volume loss (hydric soil defined wetland volume). Because...
More than 25,000 playa wetlands are embedded in the Southern High Plains (SHP), USA. The SHP is one of the most intensively cultivated areas in the world and, as a result, the function of playas has been altered by deposition of eroded sediments. We monitored water levels in 33 playas in summer 2003 to examine the influence of land use (cropland vs. native grassland) and playa characteristics (playa...
