The three project goals were to compare accuracy of different wetland mapping techniques, assess wetland condition at randomly selected field sites, and develop a landscape model to predict wetland condition. Field mapping resulted in 6.2% and 13.1% less wetland area than mapping conducted by the National Wetland Inventory and the U.S. Forest Service, respectively. Sites were at or near pristine condition based on most field measures, though sites did show evidence of disturbance from grazing and non-native plant species. Landscape model results indicate that sites further from roads, closer to trails, and within the wilderness boundary generally had healthier plant community composition measures. While wetlands in the study area are overall in good condition, we recommend follow-up work to better quantify the impact of livestock grazing on wetlands in the area using study sites with well-understood levels of grazing intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther Information:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublished: 2016\u003cbr\u003ePages: 126\u003cbr\u003eLocation: Utah\u003cbr\u003eMedia Type: Paper Publication\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Utah Geological Survey","offers":[{"title":"PAPER","offer_id":32205597704245,"sku":"RI274","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/5582\/0853\/products\/RI-274_20cover.jpg?v=1594757124"},{"product_id":"ri-264","title":"Wetlands in the Farmington Bay Area, Davis County, Utah - An evaluation of threats posed ground-water development and drought (RI-264)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eBy: C.

This report explores the potential for an In-Lieu Fee (ILF) mitigation program in Utah, which would allow entities seeking CWA permits to pay a fee to mitigate impacts to streams and wetlands rather than having to develop their own mitigation plans. An ILF program would improve the quality of wetland mitigation projects, improve coordination between the various entities involved in natural resource protection and restoration, and streamline the permitting process. A recent change by the federal government as to which wetlands are protected under the CWA may reduce permit levels to a point where an ILF program would be difficult to sustain. To address both the need for improvements to the mitigation process and concerns about accelerated loss of wetlands functions due to changing federal regulations, we recommend establishing a position for a wetland mitigation and restoration coordinator who can explore multiple options to preserve and restore wetlands in Utah, coordinate among agencies, and begin to implement an ILF program at a rate and scale appropriate to the new regulatory conditions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePublished: 2023\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePages: 22\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Utah Geological Survey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44272201466075,"sku":"OFR756","price":6.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/5582\/0853\/files\/Capture_7fcfb462-4d52-4997-943c-c08b91f5ea75.jpg?v=1695158963"},{"product_id":"mp-178","title":"Common Wetland Plants of Utah's Central Basin and Range Ecoregion (MP-178)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eby Miles McCoy-Sulentic, Diane Menuz, Denise Culver, and Elisabeth Stimmel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gmail_default\"\u003eThis field guide is an easy-to-use plant identification resource for both amateur and experienced natural resource professionals working in the Central Basin and Range ecoregion of Utah.

The investigation integrated multiple analytical methods including potentiometric surface mapping, InSAR subsidence analysis, environmental tracer studies, and estimates of evapotranspiration using remotely sensed data. Results indicate significant groundwater level declines averaging 26 feet throughout the basin since 1986; the maximum observed drawdowns were 160 feet observed in the McCornick District. The transition from flood to pivot irrigation in the 1990s increased agricultural water consumption, evidenced by a 23,400 acre-foot increase in evapotranspiration between 2000-2021. Cumulative groundwater storage depletion exceeded 1 million acre-feet between 1960-2022, with storage declines observed in 42 of 62 years. InSAR analysis revealed up to 5 inches of subsidence from 2014 to 2022, indicating permanent aquifer compaction.

They also mapped spring locations and applied supplemental Landscape Position, Landform, Water Flow Path, and Waterbody Type (LLWW) to the wetland mapping, which supports conservation needs by identifying unique wetland habitats. By comparing archived wetland mapping to landcover datasets, they evaluated wetland losses within Utah Valley following an adapted NWI difference product methodology. Identified losses overwhelmingly resulted from converting wetlands to impervious surfaces and generally coincided with population centers along the north and east shores of Utah Lake, but isolated losses occurred throughout the project area. Clustered wetland losses near the cities of Lehi, Saratoga Springs, and Vineyard indicate a general shift of wetland loss westward towards Utah Lake and the Jordan River that mirrors urban population growth and greenfield development of former agricultural lands. Some areas experienced nearly continuous losses over 40 years, indicating increasing urbanization maintains ongoing wetland loss in Utah Valley.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther Information:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePublished: 2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePages: 36\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eLocation: Utah\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAppendices: 2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eMedia Type: Paper Publication\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Utah Geological Survey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48503946936539,"sku":null,"price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/5582\/0853\/files\/ofr-776.jpg?v=1774298986"},{"product_id":"ri-294","title":"Great Salt Lake Lithium Sourcing and Groundwater Inflow Investigation (RI-294)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBy\u003c\/strong\u003e:  Elliot Jagniecki, Andrew Rupke, Taylor Boden, Erin Brinkman, and Jake Alexander\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSummary: \u003c\/strong\u003eThis Report of Investigation focused on identifying sources of lithium recharge of Great Salt Lake (GSL). Endorheic basins, like GSL, are chemical repositories for continental brines that evolve from long-term evaporative concentration of surface and groundwater. Lithium (Li) accumulation in these basins is a product of water-rock interaction, ambient groundwater and hydrothermal input, and mobilization by phyllosilicate ion exchange under certain chemical conditions. Since 1966, GSL has sustained average Li concentrations ranging from ~15 to 25 mg\/L in the south arm (SA) (Gilbert Bay) and ~45 to 60 mg\/L in the north arm (NA) (Gunnison Bay), despite probable industrial removal of ~200,000 metric tons from 1988 to 2021 via brine extraction for various mineral commodities. Lithium residence time in GSL is estimated to be ~1400 to 1600 years in the NA and 630 to 670 years in the SA. However, this estimate does not account for groundwater seepage contributions along the lake margins, as well as recycled Li that is ionically adsorbed to clay-bearing sediments and occluded within chemical sediments. Climate and lacustrine thermochemical dynamics also play a temporal role in Li concentration within the GSL brine. Spatially, point sources of elevated Li concentrations from modern playa clay-oolitic-bearing sediments and sulfate-rich groundwater spring seeps show a causal link between the supply of Li and its presence in the lake brine. For example, a single spring in the NA has a Li concentration of 5.86 mg\/L with a discharge of 0.0062 m3\/s that equates to an input rate of ~1.15 metric tons\/yr of Li into the GSL system. Whole rock geochemistry from playa and lake sediments show higher Li concentrations (23–125 ppm) than fringing groundwater (~0.02–30 mg\/L) and lake brines (20–80 mg\/L). These observations provide unambiguous evidence of localized sourcing of Li that is not accounted for in resource assessments, let alone as solute sources that influence GSL salinity during low lake elevations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther Information:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePublished: 2026\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePages: 16\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePlates: 2\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eLocation: Utah\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAppendices: 1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eMedia Type: Paper Publication\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Utah Geological Survey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48519646609627,"sku":null,"price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/5582\/0853\/files\/RI-294.jpg?v=1775592538"},{"product_id":"ofr-774dm","title":"Interim Geologic Map of the North Ogden Quadrangle, Weber and Box Elder Counties, Utah (OFR-774DM)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBy\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003eAdam P.
