myself, three other Principal Investigators (Dr. Ellen Wohl, Stephanie Kampf, and Dennis Harry) are working on this project.\u00a0 Three graduate students, Ph.D. student Jeremy Shaw and MS students Nicholas Sutfin and Joshua Faulconer, and technician Andrew Carlson are devoted to this program.\u00a0 Our overall project goals are to develop and test a watershed and stream classification system that would be usable throughout the Sonoran Desert to provide a foundation for managing streams, their vegetation, and disturbance regimes.\u00a0 Within out classification framework, we are selecting different stream reaches for detailed on site investigation of subsurface and surface geology and hydrologic processes, soil water storage, and vegetation composition and water and carbon relations.<\/p>\n<p><a
