Changing Land Use Alters Water Yield Patterns
Penn State researchers Dr. William E. Sopper and Dr. Howard W. Lull report that land use shifts between forest and nonforest affect how quickly streams reach half of annual flow. Their 17 year study across 134 Northeastern watersheds shows faster spring runoff from nonforest areas and slower spring runoff from forests, with implications for managing winter spring runoff and achieving steadier stream flow.
