Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the vital role of forest humus, the organic layer formed by decaying plant matter, in watershed management for the New England region. The author provides a comprehensive overview of the physical properties, classification, development, and functions of humus, with a focus on its influence on water storage, infiltration, and evaporation. The book highlights the importance of humus in controlling surface runoff, protecting the soil against erosion, and providing a habitat for soil flora and fauna. Through discussions of various studies and research, the author demonstrates how humus depth and type are influenced by factors such as climate, topography, stand composition, age, and site quality, and how these factors impact the hydrological properties of humus. The book emphasizes the need for further research to fully understand the role of humus in watershed management and concludes by underscoring the significance of humus as a key component in maintaining the health and productivity of forest ecosystems.
