Description:
FORREX and the BC Ministry of Forests and Range are collaborating to organize a 1-day workshop reviewing the results of the Upper Penticton Creek Watershed Experiment, a paired-basin study examining the hydrologic effects of forest management. The objective of the workshop is to present both long-term and recent research results that highlight the state of the knowledge on hydrological effects of forest management in the southern interior of BC. Presentation and discussion topics will cover research on water yield, snow accumulation and melt, rainfall interception and stand water balances, sediment budgets, nutrient cycling and water quality, aquatic invertebrates and modelling the effects of forest management on streamflow. Registration is free (lunch included), but spaces are limited so please register early.
