31-year Results in Growing Shelterbelts on the Northern Great Plains
An Agriculture Department circular presents solutions on dealing with the proliferation of mesquite on southern Arizona range lands.
Soil Compaction on Forest and Range Lands
The purpose of this report is to review available information on soil compaction as related to soil and water conservation on forest and range lands.
Hydrologic Effects from Urbanization of Forested Watersheds in the Northeast
Urbanization of forest areas tends to reduce interception, reduce infiltration and increase overland flow, reduce soil-moisture storage, reduce evapotranspiration, increase runoff, increase peak flows, and reduce water quality. annual maximum peak flows, annual hydrologic responses, and annual runoff were found (from actural streamflow records) to increase with progressive urbanization. the percentage of summer rainfall that appeared as runoff and the hydrologic responses were greater for partially urbanized watersheds than for mostly forested ones.
Radiation Measurements by Various Instruments in the Open and in the Forest
S2We made a study to examine how much and in what way various instruments agree in their measurements of shortwave radiation, and to describe the seasonal effects of oak and pine canopies on shortwave, longwave, and net radiation. The study was conducted on the Lebanon Experimental Forest, near New Lisbon, New Jersey.S3.
Increasing Water Yield in the Northeast by Management of Forested Watersheds
The purpose of this research paper is to present some of the methods by which water yields can be increased from forested watersheds and to discuss the effectiveness of these methods under different conditions. Methods discussed include clearcutting, partial cutting, and use of herbicides. Effectiveness during drought is considered. Effects on water yield of reforestation, forest protection, and forest fire and other destructive agencies are discussed. And finally, safeguards for water quality are considered.
An Annotated Bibliography of Watershed Management Research by the Northeastern Forest Experiment Station, 1931-65
S2This bibliography contains annotated citations to 156 publications in forest-watershed-management research produced by the staffs of the Allegheny and Northeastern Forest Experiment Stations from January 1931 to April 1965. Twenty-one of these publications antedate the formal establishment of watershed-management research at the Northeastern Station on July 1, 1948. The publications listed here are arranged alphabetically and chronologically by author. S3.
