Effect of Shoreline Fluctations on Grasses Associated with Upstream Flood Prevention and Watershed Protection1

M. D. Gamble and Edd D. Rhoades2

Synopsis: Knowledge of inundation tolerance of range and pasture grasses in the Southern Great Plains permits the development of criteria for establishing and managing grasses in the temporary impoundment basins of floodwater-retarding structures. Grasses are listed in 4 major inundation tolerance groups as follows: Very strong—ln excess of 20 days; Strong—10 to 20 days; Moderate—5 to 10 days; and Mild—up to 5 days.

1 Contribution from the Soil Conservation Service, USDA, and the Soil and Water Conservation Research Division, Agricultural Research Service, USDA, in cooperation with the Oklahoma Agricultural Experiment Station.

2 Conservation Agronomist, SCS, USDA, Oklahoma City., Okla., and Research Agricultural Engineer, ARS, USDA, Chickasha, Okla. The authors gratefully acknowledge the technical assistance of Robert D. Lippert, Plant Materials Technician, SCS, USDA, Manhattan, Kansas.
