science workshops focusing on various of multidiscipline, multiprogram
themes in the arid Southwest. The intent was to use the workshops to explore
leading edge questions, as well as to provide better communication and
collaboration between USGS and other organizations and agencies. The workshop
topics fall within the broad areas of landscape science of the Southwest,
ecosystem studies, climatic variation, land use associated with degradation
of habitat and soils, and surficial processes in relation to the environment. |
