Special Session - Integration and Application of Watershed Research I
Watershed-scale research is critical for understanding and managing interactions between humans and aquatic ecosystems. Integrating results of the research in ways that can inform management can be challenging. This session will focus on research that addresses watershed scale patterns, and how different elements of the research have been related and translated into forms that can be used in watershed management.
