Abstract :
The United States Forest Service has in press a bulletin entitled Forests and Water in the Light of Scientific Investigation, which contains “a summary and review of the world´s scientific literature on the subject of the influence of forests on climate, streamflow, floods, and erosion,” and “a very extensive bibliography on these subjects.” The contents of this bulletin, which is approximately 70 pages in length, were published several years ago as part of the Final Report of the National Waterways Commission, and are now being made available in convenient form as a result of the demand for information on flood control problems.
