- Kawela Gulch, Molokai, USGS soil erosion study site - Inside the enclosure, 4/27/2009 by Richard Palmer
-
First follow up image inside the browsing protected area since the initial documentation of 1 Dec 2008. There is noticable plant regrowth. More visits will occur every 6 months or so to keep track of the vegetation difference between inside and outside the feral ungulate exclosure. The meters shown monitor water run...

I used aperture priority exposure to make sure the study area and surrounding grounds were properly exposed without over-exposing the sky. There are a few stitching anomalies, which are not unexpected for such...

A view from inside the fence. The ground is barren now, but with winter rains, and no grazing, vegetation should re-emerge. We'll check back in six months or so.

This area, once dryland forest, has been greatly impacted, first through cattle grazing, and now by large herds of feral goats. T...
