Forest hydrology will focus on the movement and storage of water within forested ecosystems. Topics covered include major components of the hydrological processes occurring in forests, including canopy interception, throughfall, stemflow, infiltration, soil moisture, and its effects on nutrient availability and erosion. Forests and forest management practices have profound effects on local hydrology, so emphasis will be placed on managed forest systems and silvicultural practices to address water flow dynamics. Prerequisite(s): None.
