Managing for Ecosystem Services through Governance Networks: An Analysis of Oregon Senate Bill 513 (The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-25)Human adaptation to change is an essential determinant in the resilience of complex social-ecological systems. In the field of water policy and management it has become increasingly clear that traditional government acto ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-25)River flooding is a recurrent threat and its control and management continues to be a challenge. It has been recognized that effective flooding control requires a real-time strategy that combines optimization with a phys ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-25)In an effort to reduce suspended solids and organic carbon loading and to increase long-term groundwater recharge rates at Orange County Water District’s spreading basins, a pilot project was conducted to evaluate riverb ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-24)Oregon’s stream gaging network was last evaluated in 1970 by the U.S. Geological Survey. Water management and scientific-related needs have changed significantly since 1970, including the recognition of instream water r ...

(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-24)During 2009, the 75th Legislative Assembly passed House Bill 3369, directing the Oregon Water Resources Department to develop a state-wide, Integrated Water Resources Strategy (IWRS) to help Oregon meet its future water ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-24)The decommissioning of dams, as an approach to restoring longitudinal connectivity and to managing aging infrastructure, presents valuable opportunities for organized study of channel responses to sediment pulses. Experi ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-25)After three decades of active research in hydrology and stream ecology, the connection between solute transport, stream metabolism and nutrient dynamics is still unresolved. This existing gap obscures the functionality o ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-25)In order to efficiently reduce toxic loading to the Columbia River basin, sources and pathways need to be identified. Little is known about the toxic loadings coming from wastewater-treatment facilities and stormwater ru ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-25)The USGS SPARROW model (SPAtially Referenced Regression On Watershed attributes) was used to predict the long-term, average loads, yields, and concentrations of total nitrogen and total phosphorus for stream reaches loca ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-25)The Columbia River Treaty has been in effect for over 45 years, but its future is uncertain. Starting in 2014, Canada and the United States will have the opportunity to announce ten years’ notice for termination of the ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05)Climate change is expected to dramatically alter the timing and quantity of water within the nation’s river systems. These changes are driven by variation in the form, location and amount of precipitation that will affe ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-24)A key challenge for resource and landscape managers is to predict the consequences of climate warming on streamflows and water resources. Different approaches are being developed to forecast the direction, magnitude, an ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-25)The McKenzie River serves as the sole source of drinking water for nearly 200,000 residents in Eugene, OR. The McKenzie River is also home to a number of threatened and endangered fish species. Whereas the majority of ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-25)While the negative effects of urban development on freshwater systems are well documented, impacts of human disturbance on water quality vary depending on land cover, local climate, and temporal and spatial scales of ana ...
-
(The Oregon Water Conference, 2011-05-24)Columbia River Basalt Group (CRBG) aquifers are commonly thought to be relatively flat lying, laterally extensive, and mostly confined, and therefore not likely to be directly connected to surface water. However, many o ...
