Over the past two centuries, forest coverage and forest structures have been impacted globally by anthropogenic activities, for example, forest harvesting, and conversion of forested landscapes for plantations and urbanization. In addition, since the industrial revolution, climate change has resulted in profound impacts on forest ecosystems due to higher carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration or CO2 fertilization, warmer temperatures, changes in frequency and intensity of extreme weather events and natural disturbances. As a result, hydrological processes in forested watersheds have been altered by these natural and anthropogenic factors and these changes are expected to accelerate due to future changing climatic conditions. Hence, understanding how various environmental, physiological, and physical drivers interactively influence hydrological and biogeochemical processes in forest ecosystems is critical for sustainable water supply in forested watersheds. About 21% of the global population depends on water sources that originate in forested catchments where forest coverage larger than 30%. Furthermore, there are knowledge gaps in our understanding of the mechanism of hydrological and hydrochemical cycles in forested watersheds. This Special Issue addresses these gaps in our knowledge and includes twelve papers in the following three major research themes in forest watershed areas. 610 $aEast Asia 610 $aclimate variability 610 $ametals 610 $awoody litter 610 $aextreme weather events 610 $afrequency analysis 610 $arelative contribution 610 $astreamflow variability 610 $aprobability distribution 610 $atrace metal 610 $aclimate change 610 $aannual streamflow 610 $ahydroclimatology 610 $aforest disturbances 610 $ariver discharge 610 $aclimate warming 610 $aWeihe River 610 $anon-woody litter 610 $ariparian forest 610 $alow flow 610 $aCentral Asia 610 $acanopy filtering 610 $aflood 610 $aSWAT 610 $aChu River 610 $aannual water yield 610 $aforest hydrology 610 $athroughfall 610 $aflow regimes 610 $aSchrenk spruce (Picea schrenkiana Fisch. et Mey.) 610 $atree rings 610 $aforest floor 610 $areforestation 610 $aland-use change 610 $alow flows 610 $awatershed management 610 $ahigh flow 610 $aforest disturbance 610 $asubalpine forest 610 $agap-edge canopy 610 $ahuman activities 610 $aboreal forest 610 $aTianshan Mountains 610 $aclosed canopy 610 $agroundwater level 610 $afruit tree planting 610 $ahydrological model 610 $ahigh flows 610 $acumulative effects 610 $areconstruction 610 $aheadwater stream 610 $apartial least squares (PLS) regression 610 $astreamflow 700 $aLi$b Qiang$01064316 702 $aArain$b Altaf 702 $aPisaric$b Michael 702 $aMeng$b Fan-Rui 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910367567203321 996 $aForest Hydrology and Watershed$94317662 997 $aUNINA
