Watershed Management and Restoration
According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, watershed management is the continuous process of creating and implementing plans, programs, and projects with partners using a multi-disciplinary and adaptive approach to sustain and enhance natural watersheds. Resources available in this sub-theme include watershed management technical reports, tools to assess flows in ecosystems, and other resources that support sustainable watershed management and restoration.
