Abstract

In this chapter, we consider how watershed management practices, projects, and programs are effectively and efficiently incorporated into the conservation, sustainable development, and use of land, water, and other natural resources. We present a global view of watershed management and regional views of watershed management in the United States. Case studies from Mexico, Taiwan, Jordan, and India are examples of how watershed management is practiced on a global-scale. Regional case studies in the Lake States and Northeast, the Southeast, the Pacific Northwest, and the Colorado River Basin illustrate watershed management perspectives, problems, and programs in the United States. Future directions to follow to promote better land stewardship through watershed management are presented in these studies.
