Description: Cooperative Watershed Management research in the Lower Conifer Zone of California started in 1961. Research in the Lower Conifer Zone was designed to obtain information and develop principles about the effect of land management in the Zone upon water quality, floods and sedimentation, water timing, and water yield. The research was conducted by the Pacific Southwest Forest and Range Experiment Station of the U.S. Forest Service with the cooperation of the State of California, Department of Water Resources, and the Division of Forestry. In 1965, the Station entered into a cooperative agreement with the Humboldt State College for joint research on the Caspar Creek Study.
