Desert Riparian Areas focuses on the arduous journey of water from the upper reaches of the watershed, through narrow canyons, to wider canyons, and finally to a river in the sun-baked Sonoran Desert valley. These precious “ribbons of green” in the desert are scarce and valuable resources for desert flora and fauna.
