| Abstract/Description or Keywords | The Forest Hydrology Abstracts Library is a searchable database of references for approximately 2500 papers published prior to the year 2000. The papers in this collection cover a wide range of topics relevant to forest hydrology, such as streamflow, water quality, snow accumulation and melt, the energy balance, evapotranspiration, interception, soil moisture, fish habitat, climate change, and general watershed management. Many of the papers included here are conference presentations, technical reports, or government reports that are difficult to find or are unavailable on-line and through libraries. The Abstracts Library is intended to help retain and provide an easily searchable archive of pre-internet references that form the foundation of modern forest watershed management and research. To search the Forest Hydrology Abstracts Library, users enter keywords of interest. The title, author, source, and abstract (when available) of all references in the collection are searched to find matches for the keywords specified by the user. Where a match is found, the author, source, abstract and file location is returned to the screen. Users can request a copy of papers not available elsewhere. To build this collection, users are encouraged to forward copies of other important early papers for inclusion in future updates. |
