Modelling the potential role of forest thinning in maintaining water supplies under a changing climate across the conterminous United States

The goal of this study was to test the sensitivity of water yield to forest thinning and other forest management/disturbances and climate across the conterminous United States (CONUS). Leaf area index (LAI) was selected as a key parameter linking changes in forest ecosystem structure and functions....
