Compendium of forest hydrology and geomorphology in British Columbia

Summary: Over the last two decades, hydrologists and geomorphologists have often discussed the need to document the history, scientific discoveries, and field expertise gained in watershed management in British Columbia. Several years ago, a group of watershed scientists from academia, government, and the private sector gathered at UBC to discuss the idea of a provincially relevant summary of hydrology, geomorphology, and watershed management. Their main objectives were to bridge the sometimes disparate views in watershed science with an integrated understanding of forest hydrology and geomorphology and to create a "go-to" reference for this information. Through this meeting, the Compendium was born. The Compendium consolidates our current scientific knowledge and operational experience into 19 chapters organized around six themes: the regional context, watershed hydrology, watershed geomorphology, water quality, stream and riparian ecology, and watershed management decision support. These chapters summarize the basic scientific information necessary to manage water resources in forested environments, explaining watershed processes and the effects of disturbances across different regions of the province.
