Watershed Analysis not an original idea
reaches back at least as far as the ancient
Chinese art of geomancy
empowers the harmonious interaction between
person and place art of appropriate placement - locate and shape
spaces in harmony with both the physical and the
spiritual environment of the place
roots of modern watershed analysis canbe found in the writings of conservationists

Spatial Concept regional scale restoration requires
landscape planning and management be
spatially explicit at scales such as
physiographic provinces, river basins, and
watersheds
this simple idea, a comprehensive and
systematic analysis of a landscape, canand must inform landscape restoration and
management

URBAN WILDERNESSExploring a Metropolitan Watershed
The idea of wilderness is born of the tension betweencivilization and nature I realized that theunderlying assumption is false: civilization and
nature are not inherently separate conditions.Each of us understands the relationship between the
ideas and realities of civilization and nature basedon our historical, cultural, and individualexperiences.
