This research investigates and develops spatial analysis methods and tools for land-use suitability analysis, land-use change modeling, and effects of dynamic feedbacks between land-use change and hydrology. Model representations of the interaction between land-use change and water resources show that changes in land-use influence hydrologic responses. This is especially pronounced during high- and low-flow seasons. Hydrologic processes and water resources availability also influence land-use suitability and hence land-use change responses. Accounting for the dynamic feedback between land-use and hydrology improves knowledge that can better inform integrated natural resources management.
