The Effects of the Flow Regime on Stream Channel Form and Processes

Creator:: Hempel, Laura A.
Abstract:: Numerous studies have explored how alluvial channel size and morphology are adjusted to different sediment and flow conditions, yet we still know very little about how and to what degree the flow regime controls channel form and processes. We use the term ‘channel form’ to refer to the size and...

A stratigraphic approach to characterize the deposition and storage of organic matter in reservoir sediments

Creator:: Stratton Garvin, Laurel E.
Abstract:: The relationship between carbon burial and sedimentation in reservoirs is unknown, exposing gaps in our fundamental understanding of the transport, processing, and deposition of sediment and organic matter in fluvial and lacustrine systems and contributing to uncertainty in our understanding of the net impact of dams to the global carbon...

Historical Change and the Hydrogeomorphic Context of Present-day Floodplain Forests in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Bervid, Heather D.
Abstract:: Floodplain forests play many important roles in the fluvial processes and environments of large alluvial rivers, including acting as geomorphological influences and habitat for native fish during high flows. Many large, gravel-bed river systems have undergone substantial change in recent centuries, resulting in loss of forested area to agriculture, reduction...

Spatial and Temporal Landscape Responses to Progressive Tectonic Forcing along California Fault Systems

Creator:: Manopkawee, Pichawut
Abstract:: Understanding the degree to which topography of erosional landscapes in active mountain belts encode the rates and patterns of active deformation in the upper crust is a primary goal in the field of tectonic geomorphology. In particular, the convolved influence of variations in rock mass quality and the erodibility of...

Geomorphic Evidence for Differential Rock Uplift Across the Southern Cascadia Forearc

Creator:: von Dassow, Wesley
Abstract:: The nature of upper plate deformation along the Cascadia subduction zone (CSZ) is poorly understood. Systematic covariation among topographic relief, geodetically determined uplift rates, decadal to millennial erosion rates, and the frequency of episodic tremor and slip (ETS) along the Cascadia forearc suggest a genetic association between forearc topography and...

Debris flows in glaciated catchments : a case study on Mount Rainier, Washington

Creator:: Legg, Nicholas T.
Abstract:: Debris flows, which occur in mountain settings worldwide, have been particularly damaging in the glaciated basins flanking the stratovolcanoes in the Cascade Range of the northwestern United States. This thesis contains two manuscripts that respectively investigate the (1) initiation processes of debris flows in these glaciated catchments, and (2) debris...

Periglacial debris-flow initiation and susceptibility and glacier recession from imagery, airborne LiDAR, and ground-based mapping

Creator:: Lancaster, Stephen T., Nolin, Anne W., Copeland, Elizabeth A., and Grant, Gordon E.
Abstract:: Climate changes in the Pacific Northwest, USA, may cause both retreat of alpine glaciers and increases in the frequency and magnitude of storms delivering rainfall at high elevations absent significant snowpack, and both of these changes may affect the frequency and severity of destructive debris flows initiating on the region's...

Connecting Science to Policymakers, Managers, and Citizens

Creator:: Lubchenco, Jane, Menge, Bruce A., Barth, John A., Carr, Mark H., Caselle, Jennifer E., Chan, Francis, Fulton-Bennett, Heather K., Gaines, Steven D., Kroeker, Kristy J., Milligan, Kristen, Palumbi, Steven R., and White, J. Wilson
Abstract:: Twenty years ago, the creation of a new scientific program, the Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans (PISCO), funded by the Packard Foundation, provided the opportunity to integrate—from the outset—research, monitoring, and outreach to the public, policymakers, and managers. PISCO’s outreach efforts were initially focused primarily on sharing scientific...

The Dynamics and Impact of Ocean Acidification and Hypoxia: Insights from Sustained Investigations in the Northern California Current Large Marine Ecosystem

Creator:: Chan, Francis, Barth, John A., Kroeker, Kristy J., Lubchenco, Jane, and Menge, Bruce A.
Abstract:: Coastal upwelling ecosystems around the world are defined by wind-generated currents that bring deep, nutrient-rich waters to the surface ocean where they fuel exceptionally productive food webs. These ecosystems are also now understood to share a common vulnerability to ocean acidification and hypoxia (OAH). In the California Current Large Marine...

Community Responses to Climate-Related Variability and Disease: The Critical Importance of Long-Term Research

Creator:: Menge, Bruce A., Caselle, Jennifer E., Barth, John A., Blanchette, Carol A., Carr, Mark H., Chan, Francis, Gravem, Sarah, Gouhier, Tarik C., Lubchenco, Jane, McManus, Margaret A., Milligan, Kristen, Novak, Mark, Raimondi, Peter T., Washburn, Libe, and White, J. Wilson
Abstract:: A major goal of the Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans (PISCO) has been to understand the impacts of climate change and variability on the coastal ecosystems of the inner shelf of the California Current Large Marine System in particular, and other marine and even nonmarine systems more generally....
