Climatic and physiographic controls on peakflow generation in the western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:

Perkins, Reed

Abstract:

Despite the importance of rain and snowmelt in causing peakflows in the Pacific Northwest, the interactive effects of a snowpack and watershed physiography on streamflow are largely undocumented. This study investigated the influence of soil and snowpack moisture on peakflow hydrograph shape in three small (< 60 ha) control sub-watersheds...

Investigations of runoff production and sedimentation on forest roads

Creator:

Wemple, Beverley C.

Abstract:

Forest roads constructed in steep mountain landscapes have been associated with a number of effects on hydrologic and geomorphic processes. This research examined the effects of forest roads on the flow of water and sediment in drainage basins in the Cascade range of western Oregon. A study conducted at the...
