This research provides details of water resource conflict and cooperation in Oregon between 1990 and 2004 by using an event database methodology. Events were concentrated in four of 18 basins. No basin accounted for more that 25% of the total water rights events, the most evenly distributed issue type. Overall...
The consumptive water use of six cities in the Willamette
Basin of northwestern Oregon was evaluated for the period 1960-66.
Consumptive use ratios were obtained by analyzing data from monthly
water supply and sewage flow records. The average annual consumptive
use for the six cities was found to be 26...
In recent years, several interrelated forces—prolonged drought, growing populations, height-ened environmental protections, sustained agricultural use, and hydrologic alterations due to climate change—have increased pressure on water users in the Western United States, where the agricultural sector accounts for up to 90% of total water withdrawals. Technology im-provements developed since the...
This study focused on the potential water and energy savings from implementing a revised schedule of a recirculation pump connected to a condensing gas tankless water heater located in a study home in Portland, Oregon. The existing recirculation pump activation schedule was studied for its impact on the overall water...
The relationship between attitudes toward energy and conservation
behavior was studied in the context of sociodemographic and housing
characteristics. Data were obtained by mail survey from a random sample
of 1,503 Oregon households (Western Regional Agricultural Experiment
Station Project, W-159). The return rate was 55 percent (834).
Attitudes toward energy...
This Jupyter Notebook is intended to accompany the publication "Agrivoltaics align with Green New Deal goals while supporting investment in the US’ rural economy".This reduced-order economic analysis estimates the total construction, operation, and energy storage costs of wide scale implementation of Agrivoltaic Systems in the United States. Additionally, estimates are...
