The Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed

Synopsis:

At the Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed researchers consider the effects of land use change on hydrological processes.

The Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed surrounds the historic city of Tombstone in southern Arizona. The USDA - Agricultural Research Service established the watershed in the 1950s to study floods and the impact of soil and water conservation projects on runoff.
