| dc.description.abstract | The Flint River Science Thrust project of the U.S. Geological Survey is part of a federally funded program to address key National science priorities including landslides/debris flows, fire science, integrated landscape monitoring, and water availability. The purpose of the project is to advance the science needed to specify the hydrologic conditions necessary to support flowing-water ecosystems. This information is critical for management of water supplies. Specific project goals include: • Develop conceptual models that relate hydrology, geomorphology, and water quality to biological management objectives. • Evaluate and determine the major factors driving the conceptual models and determine additional data needs. • Use the upper Flint River Basin to demonstrate a spatially explicit predictive model for evaluating watersupply development options that links watershed conditions to biological management objectives. • Identify research and monitoring needed to address critical uncertainties and data gaps determined during model development. | en_US |
