Sierra Ancha Experimental Forest Watersheds

The research mission of work on the Sierra Ancha Experimental Forest was to study the effects of grazed and ungrazed vegetation on water yields and to learn more about water cycle relationships within the diverse vegetation zones extending from the higher elevation mixed conifer forests to the semi-desert grass type. more...>

Treatments and Research

• Treatments and Practices - how the study was conducted and treatments used, and management practices used and results for each, with photos and maps of the areas within the reserve.
• Data Collected - this is a new section we're working on that will soon provide access to data on precipitation, streamflow, sediment loads, and other data that were collected from Sierra Ancha.
  • Documentation for the data - what measurements were recorded, how to interpret it, the years covered, etc.
  • Data - select the watersheds, time period, etc. then view and download the results
• Results, Implications, and Current Status
• Images - available in the image database illustrating various aspects and conditions found in watersheds in the southwestern United States. These can be accessed after getting into the database by using the key word sierra ancha.
