Synopsis

This book studies the effects of forest treatments on streamflow and water quality. Four watersheds were monitored for six years before undergoing logging with different methods. The results show that cutting vegetation increases streamflow, with the amount of increase proportional to the severity of the cut. The study also found that poorly planned logging can cause water pollution, but most of the damage to water quality can be avoided by proper planning and care.
