Saving A Desert River, Urban Farms, Vibrating Rock

Season 8, Episode 2 of 7

To protect one of Arizona's last perennially flowing rivers, conservationists practice smart stewardship to minimize irrigation and clear invasive plants. Taking advantage of open areas in crowded cities, urban farmers are growing healthy foods and making profits. Studying iconic sandstone arches in the Southwest, researchers learn how these formations vibrate and gather data to help understand their architectural health.
