The Forest Water Cycle How Do Forests Affect our Drinking Water? Clean water is one of life’s basic necessities Healthy forests keep streams clean and water quality high by promoting soils that provide natural filtration and vegetative cover which minimize soil erosion and sediment runoff
Land cover highly impacts the water cycle; this is even more marked in mountainous areas where there is commonly more rainfall and steep slopes favourable to runoff and erosion Mountains being natural water towers land us e and land cover changes could have there consequences in the water balance of extended areas
Our land use decisions have direct impacts on our water availability through activities such as dam installation or discharging nutrients and other pollutants into our waterways and indirect impacts such as those contributing to climate change (e g deforestation among others)
Changes in land cover can influence climate and climate in turn can influence land use and land cover These land cover changes affect weather and climate variability by altering biophysical biogeochemical and energy exchange processes at local regional and global scales
forest management may lead to increased carbon sequestration above and below ground it is critical to understand how more intensive forestry approaches may influence the entire suite of ecosystem services that these landscapes provide The potential combined effect of new forest management approaches and climate change on the
The presence of forests with deep roots might exploit deep stores of water in the dry season and thereby reduce baseflows However the presence of forests might encourage deep recharge of soil water in wet seasons and this deep recharge will sustain dry season flows
effects of potential forest removals on the seasonal and annual total water yield at watershed and county scales Counties that are sensitive to biomass removal are identified to help reduce the risk of environmental degradation and to maximize the positive effects of biomass production on watershed functions
