Abstract

A new technology has been developed to obtain water from aspen (Populus tremuloides) stands for wildlife use. This paper presents the three year study results of this technology and provides site, vegetative and soils criteria for evaluating aspen stands for possible water harvesting. The advantages, limitations, and costs of this water collection and storage system compared to traditional guzzlers are discussed.
