Contents Forest hydrology, policy, history, case studies, and watershed function -- Watersheds, forest, and hillslope hydrology -- Geomorphology -- Forest operations and management effects -- Nonforest land use effects -- Soil disturbance, roads, and best management practices -- Modeling approaches, concepts, and reviews -- Hydrologic model descriptions and applications -- Land use hydrologic modeling -- Hillslope hydrologic modeling -- Modeling issues -- Flood frequency analysis.
Summary Floods continue to cause significant damage in the United States and elsewhere, and questions about the causes of flooding continue to be debated. A significant amount of research has been conducted on the relationship between forest management activities and water yield, peak flows, and flooding; somewhat less research has been conducted on the modeling of these activities as related to flooding. This bibliography and online bibliographic database provide a searchable listing of more than 600 publications related to the interrelationships of forest and forest management on watershed and flood hydrology. Also included are publications related to the capability and limitations of currently available hydrologic models and modeling approaches, with particular emphasis on their utility for evaluating forest management effects.
Subject Forest hydrology -- Bibliography.
