The people of the Schitsu’umsh (Coeur d’Alene) Tribe in northwestern Idaho have depended on wetland plants and animals for thousands of years. Not only have 65% of the wetlands once found here been lost since non-Indian settlement began in the 1800’s, but more and more the Reservation experiences exceptional heat and drought conditions as a result of climate change. Thus, there is an urgent need to build up Tribal drought resilience that protects Tribal water resources in a proactive and culturally appropriate manner. To build Tribal capacity around drought resilience, we restored wetlands along Reservation streams between 2022 and 2024. Restoration efforts included raising streambeds in incised channels, planting native vegetation, and establishing large woody debris. To monitor the restoration efforts, we conducted vegetation surveys and waterfowl drone surveys before and after restoration efforts and deployed temperature loggers, conductivity and dissolved oxygen loggers, ground water level loggers, rain gauges, and trail cameras. Additionally, stream reaches that were not restored were established as control sites and monitored as well. In the future, we plan to conduct interviews with Tribal members to evaluate how Indigenous knowledge can be best used to assess the ability of our wetland restoration efforts to improve drought resilience on the Reservation.
