Abstract
Long-term studies on paired-research catchments have often showed periods of changes to water yields and peak stormflow after forest harvesting. Most studies have focused on wholecatchment or downstream responses. In contrast, few studies have ever been established to measure and investigate specific pathways of water routing through catchment soils or how sub-catchment hydrological flowpaths respond to experimental vegetation manipulations, as well as common metrics of annual water yields and stormflow magnitudes.
