Excerpt from Simulating Timber Yields and Hydrologic Impacts Resulting From Timber Harvest on Subalpine Watersheds
Watershed management research during the past 50 years has shown that subalpine forests exert a significant effect on water yields. Hence, man-caused changes in the forest environment can be expected to affect the water resource. When timber is harvested, the magnitude of the resulting hydrologic change is highly sensitive to the pattern in which a given volume of wood is removed.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book models the growth and yield of timber and water resources under human management in spruce-fir forests, often found in the Rocky Mountain region of the USA. The author, a principal silviculturist, focuses on predicting the hydrologic effects of timber harvesting in these forests to aid sustainable management practices. First published in 1975 as research conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, the models and theories presented in this volume remain valuable for those involved in water resource management due to their foundational approach. Through the articulation of complex interactions between timber harvesting and water yield, this book guides the reader through a thoughtful and informative journey into the world of forest hydrology.
