Evaluating the influence of historical and current land cover on sediment and nutrient transport
"Alterations to historical land cover along with the spatial variability of current land cover can directly impact groundwater flow and the water quality of streams. As human population grows, land cover will continue to be altered, enhancing its importance. This study examines how changing land cover affects recharge to groundwater and groundwater transport to streams"--From abstract.
