Abstract

The objectives of this research are to:

  1. Support natural resource management at a watershed and policy analysis scale by documenting landscape condition, quantifying natural resources, and defining land cover and land use change using geospatial imagery and analysis.
  2. Assess the impacts of climate variation and land use practices on agricultural sustainability and natural resource management at a watershed scale.
  3. Evaluate the accuracy and value of low-cost community-based monitoring of watershed hydrology.
