This study investigated how roads interact with hillslope flow in a steep, forested landscape dominated by subsurface flow and how road interactions with hillslope flow paths influence hydrologic response during storms in a second-order catchment. Runoff was measured continuously from 12 subcatchments draining to road segments and covering 14% of...
Forest roads constructed in steep mountain landscapes have been associated with a
number of effects on hydrologic and geomorphic processes. This research examined the
effects of forest roads on the flow of water and sediment in drainage basins in the Cascade
range of western Oregon. A study conducted at the...
