Description

Validates identified zones using independent datasets of watershed functions including drought sensitivity derived from satellite NDVI timeseries and nitrogen export from streamflow chemistry. Tests whether zones capture meaningful functional differences.

Typical Equipment

  • Landsat satellite imagery
  • Palmer drought severity index data
  • Streamflow and chemistry measurement data

Output Measurements

  • drought sensitivity maps
  • nitrogen export rates
  • zone-function relationships
