Publications for Watershed Scientists
Research priorities for IWRC include: Watershed and stream protection; integrated water management for multiple users; wetland processes; and emerging issues, including other innovative research topics that are not included in the priorities above.
The Center takes a special interest in helping young scientists establish a record of accomplishment in water resources research. Virtually all projects supported by the IWRC contribute significantly to the education of students, both graduate and undergraduate, who participate in the research projects.
