Focus on watershed processes and interactions<br />
between geophysical, biological, and<br />
socioeconomic factors in bounded geographic<br />
drainage basins. The interplay between watershed<br />
processes and the management<br />
of other natural resources is integral to<br />
these studies.<br />
