Forest Detectives Solve Asheville Watershed Mystery
EFETAC scientists use ForWarn, a satellite-based monitoring and assessment tool, to detect and track potential forest disturbances across the lower 48 United States. When ecologists Bill Hargrove and Steve Norman discovered an area of unusual forest activity within the Asheville, NC, watershed, they reported the findings to the Asheville Water Resources Department and visited the watershed to investigate. Read more about their discovery in CompassLive, the Southern Research Station's online science log.
