Acknowledgments

The writers of this closure would like to recognize their co-authors who contributed to the original paper, Vishal Mehta, Alexis Marrone, and Jan Boll (Univ. of Idaho) and have moved on to valuable endeavors elsewhere. This work was truly a synergistic effort involving several years of back-of-the-envelop analyses and after-hours discussion to come-to-terms with quantifying the propensity of Hortonian overland flow in the NYC watersheds and to convince ourselves that we should publish our findings. They also need to acknowledge personnel at the NYC-DEP, the USDA-NRCS in Walton, the Watershed Agriculture Council, and agricultural producers and watershed planners in the NYC watersheds for their on-going encouragement and open-mindedness.
