Spatial scales for monitoring anthropogenic influence on the earth systemspatial libra pro monitoring anthropogenic duco in orbis terrarum ratio Water and sediment production per unit area varies by orders of magnitude between watersheds of different sizes Water and sediment production per unit area varies by orders of magnitude between watersheds of different sizes Large less steep lower drainage density greater storage Large less steep lower drainage density greater storage Small high hillslope and stream gradient high drainage density less storage Small high hillslope and stream gradient high drainage density less storage Our studies cover the 4 main scales: Our studies cover the 4 main scales: Large Rivers (Sacramento/ San Joaquin Rivers = 154,000 km 2 ) Large Rivers (Sacramento/ San Joaquin Rivers = 154,000 km 2 ) Small Tributaries (10s km 2 - 1,660 km 2 ) Small Tributaries (10s km 2 - 1,660 km 2 ) Sub-watersheds / Storm drain outfalls (10s ha – few km 2 ) Sub-watersheds / Storm drain outfalls (10s ha – few km 2 ) Urban BMPs (<1 – 10s ha) Urban BMPs (<1 – 10s ha) San Francisco Estuary Institute Regional Watershed Sewershed
