Organized by: JA Jones (jonesj@geo.oregonstate.edu), NB Grimm,
CN Dahm, AP Covich, MW Williams
Endorsed by: long-term studies
Moderator: JA Jones
The objective of the symposium is to examine how ecological
processes contribute to sustained water yield; how climate change,
natural and anthropogenic disturbance have altered ecosystem
water yield and water quality; and how these ecological processes
and effects on water supplies vary among major regions of North
America.
