Effects of Overstorey Mortality on Snow Accumulation and Ablation
註釋This project documents stand structure and snow hydrology in both healthy and beetle-attacked pine stands of different ages over a large geographic area. Hydrologic changes are therefore expected in watersheds dominated by lodgepole pine due to the current mountain pine beetle epidemic and to salvage harvesting operations. The project assists in the development of process-based hydrologic models by providing stand-level data on the structure and snow hydrology of growing and deteriorating pine stands at different post-disturbance ages. This will help watershed modellers improve the accuracy of hydrologic predictions under different forest disturbance scenarios.--Includes text from document.
