The purpose of our case study was to measure these metrics on the U.S. side of the border between Hoover and Morelos Dams to see if declining greenness was unique to the portion of the river in Mexico. In this case study, five riparian reaches of the LCR from Hoover to Morelos Dam since 2000 were studied to evaluate trends in riparian ecosystem health. We measure these riparian woodlands using remotely sensed measurements of the two-band Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI2; a proxy for greenness); daily evapotranspiration (ET; mmd\u22121) using EVI2 (ET(EVI2)); and an annualized ET based on EVI2, the Phenology Assessment Metric (PAM ET), an annualized ET using Landsat time-series. A key finding is that riparian health and its water use has been in decline since 2000 on the U.S. portion of the LCR, depicting a loss of green vegetation over the last two decades. EVI2 results show a decline of \u221213.83%, while average daily ET(EVI2) between the first and last decade had a decrease of over 1 mmd\u22121 (\u221227.30%) and the respective average PAM ET losses were 170.91 mmyr\u22121 (\u221217.95%). The difference between the first and last five-year periods, 2000\u20132005 and 2016\u20132020, showed the largest decrease in daily ET(EVI) of 1.24 mmd\u22121 (\u221232.61%). These declines come from a loss in healthy, green, riparian plant-cover, not a change in plant water use efficiency nor efficient use of managed water resources. Our results suggest further deterioration of biodiversity, wildlife habitat and other key ecosystem services on the U.S. portion of the LCR.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13071332","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,31]],"date-time":"2021-03-31T10:24:33Z","timestamp":1617186273000},"page":"1332","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Riparian Area Changes in Greenness and Water Use on the Lower Colorado River in the USA from 2000 to 2020"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0674-103X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pamela L.","family":"Nagler","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"U.S. Geological Survey, Southwest Biological Science Center, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Armando","family":"Barreto-Mu\u00f1oz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biosystems Engineering, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sattar","family":"Chavoshi Borujeni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Life Sciences, Faculty of Science, University of Technology Sydney, Sydney, NSW 2007, Australia"},{"name":"Soil Conservation and Watershed Management Research Department, Isfahan Agricultural and Natural Resources Research and Education Centre, AREEO, Isfahan 8174835117, Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7424-5030","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hamideh","family":"Nouri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Agronomy, University of G\u00f6ttingen, Von-Siebold-Strasse 8, 37075 G\u00f6ttingen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christopher J.","family":"Jarchow","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biosystems Engineering, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4976-6379","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kamel","family":"Didan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biosystems Engineering, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"85","DOI":"10.1061\/(ASCE)0733-9437(2005)131:1(85)","article-title":"SEBAL Model with Remotely Sensed Data to Improve Water-Resources Management under Actual Field Conditions","volume":"131","author":"Bastiaanssen","year":"2005","journal-title":"Irrig.
