This Watershed Renaissance Initiative grant will enable Stroud Water Research Center to implement extensive watershed restoration projects designed to capture and control excess water and sediment production from agricultural hillslopes. The grant also provides funding to support extensive and highly rigorous monitoring efforts targeted at measuring the effectiveness of restoration projects. Results will help provide guidance to maximize the effectiveness of future restoration designs and investments at the regional and national levels.
