Special Session - Changing Land Use and Water Quality
The theme of the session will be the impacts of urbanization on water quality, hydrology, and aquatic biota. While the issue is global, most of the presentations will emphasize the southeastern United States. Although research approaches are varied, landscape and catchment scale studies will be most prevalent. The physiographic regions involved include the Appalachian Mountains, the Piedmont, and coastal areas.
