Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book summarizes numerous watershed research studies within thirteen Southern US states on the water quality effects of common forest management practices. The author reviews the relative sediment yields from various forest types in the region. While undisturbed forests typically yield less than a ton of sediment per acre annually, this yield can spike to 100 times that amount following poorly planned logging or road construction. However, these levels return to normal within three years. Best management practices are detailed to help minimize water quality damage, and chemical concentrations are also covered. Forest insect infestations are also found to increase nitrate concentrations in water. The author's monitoring of commonly used herbicides in forestry reveals no threat to aquatic plants, insects, or fish when applied correctly and safely. These herbicides also break down quickly in forest soil.
