"Meeting local watershed management needs and regulatory requirements is putting new and growing demands on local, regional, and national watershed managers to come up with the right answers to our water quality problems, especially in the area of stormwater control. Finding the information they need can sometimes be difficult with important papers sometimes published in a number of journals that are not dedicated to the study of watershed science. Just as important authors who focus on watershed science need a journal responsive to their subject matter and they know will reach the right audience. Both authors and readers will find the The Watershed Science Bulletin an efficient way to share and learn what we need to know now and in the future as we increase our efforts to improve our nations waters." - Roger Bannerman, Water Resources Management Specialist
Watershed Science Bulletin is the journal of the Association of Watershed and Stormwater Professionals (AWSPs). This peer-reviewed journal is published semiannually and features practical, science-based solutions to watershed and stormwater management issues. The Bulletin is the first publication to directly serve the community of watershed management professionals. These busy professionals typically do not have access to academic research databases for the numerous disciplines that inform watershed management. The journal's mission is to synthesize both research and experience from these disciplines and transmit this valuable information to those who need it to protect and restore their watersheds. Therefore, the information provided in the Bulletin is vital to the continuing education of watershed management professionals. Click here for more information about the Watershed Science Bulletin.
