From the text...'Revolutionary computer technologies facilitate the storage, retrieval, and summarization of watershed-based data information on the World Wide Web. The stored information can be used by researchers when testing and validating predictive-models; managers when planning and implementing watershed management practices; and decision-makers when selecting the best course of action from a set of alternatives. Information from the Beaver Creek watershed project in north-central Arizona has been incorporated into a Website (http://www.rmrs.nau.edu/wsmgt/beavercr/) for the purposes mentioned above (Baker et al. 2000). Data on this Website include precipitation, air temperature, and relative humidity; streamflow amounts and distribution; sediment yields and water quality characteristics; and information on forage and timber production and wildlife populations and habitat qualities. Information on this Website provides a basis to help watershed researchers, managers, and decision-makers resolve current and future land stewardship issues.' © Society of American Foresters.
