Research Questions
(1) Do restorations in urban streams improve ecosystem function?
(2) Does stream size influence the response to the restoration?
Experimental Design
Quantified ecosystem structure & function in restored & concrete reaches
Physical ~ water residence time & transient storage
Chemical ~ nutrient spiraling length
Biological ~ whole-stream metabolism
Calculated log response ratio (L) to determine the effect of the restoration:
L = log (Xtreatment / Xcontrol)
If L > 0, restoration increased metric
If L < 0, restoration decreased metric
