Description
The authors describe the approaches used: 1. Present data on land use at catchment scale (1994, 2002); Erosion mitigation at plot level; Tree biomass; Potential and actual farm incomes; Adjacent stream water quality; Quantify adoption of new practices; Try to link together through models
2. Compare adjacent similar micro-watersheds with quantified land use and data-rich in water quality/quantity; Show obvious relationships between parameters; Scale up erosion, rainfall, flow, {evaporation/drainage?} pesticide, tree biomass; Watershed values for different land use scenarios
