Integrated assessments of hydrologic and biological responses of watersheds to forest and peat management in the northern Lake States have been made possible by 50 years of long-term monitoring, laboratory experiments, and linked eld-plot research at the Marcell Experimental Forest (MEF). The iterative process-eld plots, laboratory and watershed-scale experiments, and model calibration and verication-have facilitated model development. Research at the MEF has generated a continuous, quality-assured monitoring database that along with linked research has been used to develop empirical and dynamic modeling approaches for a variety of applied management
