About Us: Forested Wetlands Hydrology

Forested Wetlands Hydrology

Managing forested wetland landscapes for water quality improvement, quantity control, and productivity requires a detailed understanding of functional linkages between ecohydrological processes and management practices.

There are three principal areas of research:

1. Hydrologic and nutrient cycling processes of undrained and managed forested wetlands
2. Hydrologic linkages among ecosystems including uplands and lowlands;
3. Hydrologic and water quality modeling.

The hydrologic studies are supported by long-term watershed research:

• Santee Watershed
• Turkey Creek Watershed
• Coosawhatchie Bottomland Hardwood System
• Trice Experimental Forest
• Carteret Forest Water Management, NC
• On-line databases: HYDRO-DB
• Five Hydrologic Studies Conducted by ...
