Determinants of the forest-water relationship
(2018) McNulty, Steven G.; Archer, Emma; Gush, Mark; Noordwijk, Meine van; Ellison, David; Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio; Xu, Jianchu; Bishop, Kevin; Wei, Xiaohua; Vira, Bhaskar; Creed, Irena F.; Mukherji, Aditi; Ciencias del Medio Natural; Natura Ingurunearen Zientziak
Our analysis of forest-water relations addresses four important subsystems of a linked planetary social-ecological system: climate, forests, water and people. In this chapter, we consider how each of these subsystems is changing (trend) and what is causing the change (’determinant’). We discuss the critical determinants of change in forests as they relate to water quality and quantity. Chapter 4 then presents the impacts of these changes on water quality and quality.

Forest landscape hydrology in a "new normal" era of climate and land use change
(2018) Jones, Julia A.; Wei, Xiaohua; Noordwijk, Meine van; Creed, Irena F.; Gush, Mark; Ellison, David; Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio; Bishop, Kevin; McNulty, Steven G.; Archer, Emma; Ciencias del Medio Natural; Natura Ingurunearen Zientziak
This chapter aims to clarify the effects that changing climate and quantity, quality and pattern of tree cover in forests have on the way water becomes available for human use and ecosystem integrity. To do this, the chapter synthesises current understanding of implications for local and global hydrology of current and anticipated changes to forests and tree cover.
