Channel morphology and hydraulic characteristics of torrent-impacted forest streams in the Oregon Coast Range, U.S.A.

Creator:

Kaufmann, Philip Robert

Abstract:

Tracer-derived estimates of hydraulic resistance and transient hydraulic storage were related to measures of pool volume and channel morphometric variability in small streams of the Oregon coast, U.S.A. Fourteen 100 m study reaches in 3 streams were selected to compare channel and hydraulic characteristics in streams representing a time series...

Dissertation
The effects of channel modification on characteristics of streams during low flow

Creator:

Atkinson, Brett

Abstract:

Fluorescent dye was used to assess summer low flow hydraulic retention and transient storage (dead zone) associated with fish habitat structures at Camp Creek, Drift Creek, and the East Fork of Lobster Creek within the central Coast Range of Oregon. Utilizing channel units to stratify stream reaches, the effect of...

Countersunk culvert hydraulics for upstream juvenile fish passage

Creator:

House, Matthew R.

Abstract:

Twenty-one countersunk culverts in Oregon were inventoried to establish baseline information for the stream crossings so that subsequent resurveys can assess the long-term stability and functionality of the culvert design. A subset of the inventoried culverts was selected for detailed hydraulic measurements. The detailed velocity measurements were used to help...
