Project: Near-stream groundwater dynamics at Hubbard Brook forest

Variations in near-stream groundwater dynamics in a headwater catchment at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, NH

As part of a multi-student exploration of the connections between soils, shallow groundwater, and headwater streams in Watershed 3 at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, we focused on the near-stream zone and hope to draw attention to the importance of stream-groundwater exchange in headwater streams and emphasize the variability of this exchange in both space and time.
