Erosion
Potential
Low
Moderate
High
This is the final Erosion
potential model.Areas in red
and orange and dark yellow impact the water quality through erosion more
than the grey areas.The
northeast corner of the lake has very high impact and this is most likely
due to the developed land use, steeper slopes, and its proximity to the
lake.Wetlands are the very
light grey areas.These
actually absorb erosion before it reaches the lake.
This model would be very useful for focusing
remediation and erosion control efforts.This may take the form of strengthening buffers around
streams and cleared land as well as keeping roads well maintained.
