  • Hydrological Response to Compounding Impacts of Climate Change and Forest Management in the Upper Kings River Basin, CA, USA (2026) · Ecohydrology · cited 3× · doi

    Further studies are needed to investigate the impacts of climate change and forest management on other hydrological variables, such as groundwater recharge. The development of more advanced models that can capture the complexities of forest ecosystems is needed. Additional research is required to evaluate the effectiveness of different forest restoration strategies in mitigating climate change impacts.
