I have broken my Division III research into five chapters. The first is an introduction into how I have developed my interests in the larger subject of forest hydrology and lead into a deeper literature review of the importance of this topic. Then, in my second chapter, I elaborate on the research that I have started where I look at water use of black birches and eastern hemlocks presenting the introduction, methods, expected results, and implication of my process in using sap flow to research the potential impacts of the hemlock woolly adelgid on New England forest water use. Although I was unable to complete this project, I outline the work I have done throughout my division III in hopes of continuing my work after I graduate. \u00a0In my third chapter, I present a manuscript of\u00a0 forest-wind-water research using geospatial analysis software which I am preparing to submit to a peer-review journal after I graduate. For my concluding chapter, I tie together my different research topics and explain how my work during my Division III has prepared me for a future in forest hydrology and my continued pursuit of researching how forest land use influences the water cycle.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
