The Watershed Health Assessment Framework (WHAF) is a structured, evidence-based approach for improving the health of watersheds and water resources. This transparent, repeatable framework brings together current data and analysis to generate health scores for watersheds and water resources organized within a representative set of ecological components. The data and scores are delivered through interactive online applications that allow for place-based explorations of watershed health. This framework helps resource professionals and communities work together to build a common understanding of complex natural resource systems to consider actions that might offer holistic benefits to watershed health.

The Watershed Health Assessment Framework (WHAF) is a structured, evidence-based approach for improving the health of watersheds and water resources. This transparent, repeatable framework brings together current data and analysis to generate health scores for watersheds and water resources organized within a representative set of ecological components. The data and scores are delivered through interactive online applications that allow for place-based explorations of watershed health. This framework helps resource professionals and communities work together to build a common understanding of complex natural resource systems to consider actions that might offer holistic benefits to watershed health.
