Synopsis

This book explores the hydrological changes that occur in forested watersheds after land-use changes by measuring streamflow, rainfall, and analyzing the relationships between various forest types and water yields. The author utilizes a mathematical model to simulate the hydrology of a study watershed in Ohio, representing the first time this specific model has been used for land-use change analysis. Through this model, the author seeks to establish the statistical significance of hydrologic changes caused by reforestation and compare the different hydrologic responses of three forest types: mature hardwoods, pines, and grass. The book presents critical insights into how forest management can impact a watershed's hydrology, offering a valuable resource for researchers, land managers, and anyone interested in sustainable water resource management.
