Sampling Design, Methods and Results
Abstract
This article describes the sampling design, survey methodology and findings of a
natural resources survey conducted in the Rathbun Lake Watershed in Southern
Iowa in 1999-2000. The goal of the survey was to quantify the erosion from all
sources on agricultural lands and the ecological health of streams for each of 61
subwatersheds in the area. A total of 183 plots of approximately 160 acres in size
were selected by stratified random sampling for the erosion measurements, and the
streams locations were selected by a two-stage procedure. The measurement
instruments for all erosion types (stream, gully, ephemeral gully, sheet and rill), as
well as that for the stream health assessment, are briefly described in the article. All
the selected plots and stream locations were sampled during field visits in the study
period. A composite small area estimation procedure was used to produce the
subwatershed-level erosion estimates.
1. Introduction
The Rathbun Lake Watershed, located on the Chariton River in southern Iowa,
provides water to more than 50,000 residents in Iowa and Missouri. The watershed
includes over 365,000 acres, including part of Clarke, Lucas, Monroe, Decatur, Wayne and
Appanoose counties. Numerous small livestock feeding operations are located in the
watershed, and about 133,000 acres in the watershed are highly erodible cropland, making
Rathbun Lake vulnerable to both point and non-point sources of water pollution. The most
important non-point source pollution is thought to be soil
