This book explores the impact of clearcutting on water yield in northern Idaho, specifically examining how harvesting practices affect water storage in the soil and snowpack. The author investigates two clearcuts, one on a north-facing slope and the other on a south-facing slope, and compares them to adjacent forested areas. The study reveals that clearcutting on the north slope leads to substantial gains in water yield due to reduced evapotranspiration and snow interception. However, on the south slope, these gains are smaller and more variable due to factors such as wind exposure and vegetation recovery. The book highlights the importance of slope orientation and vegetation in managing water resources in forested areas and provides valuable insights for land managers and policymakers seeking to balance timber harvesting with water yield goals.
