Project Description
Southern Forests Water Futures Project strives to improve our understanding of biogeochemical and hydrologic cycles in both conifer and deciduous forests and to develop management strategies that can enhance sustainable development of forest water resources and improve forest resilience to negative impacts of climate change. This project will: -provide knowledge, tools and techniques to better manage forest ecosystems and water resources -help in developing next-generation ecosystem and hydrologic models to be used in Canadian regional and global climate models to predict future climate and hydrologic regimes, and -formulate climate change mitigation and adaptation plans to secure water resources.
